Quality Control

Our 1Beta-Hydroxyalantolactone is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) to prevent oxidation and degradation. The container should be kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials.
