Quality Control

Our 2-[4-(Hydroxymethyl)Phenoxy]-n-Phenylacetamide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under dry conditions. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere to minimize potential oxidation.
