Quality Control

Our Sodium (2-Methoxyphenoxy)Acetate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and industrial use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
