Quality Control

Our Hex-1-En-3-Ol is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. Our commitment to cGMP and ISO 9001 principles ensures reliable supply for critical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at 2-8°C to minimize oxidation and volatility. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed and should be allowed to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture ingress.
