Quality Control

Our 3,4-Dihydro-2,5,7-Trihydroxy-3-Methoxy-2-Methyl-1,6,11(2H)-Naphthacenetrione is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are provided and can be tailored to support GMP or research-grade requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity, the container should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent oxidation. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
