Quality Control

Our Xylonic Acid, 2-Amino-2,3,5-Trideoxy-3-Methyl-, γ-Lactone (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for advanced synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic and spectroscopic data (NMR, IR, MS) are provided to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency for your critical R&D and scale-up projects.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). This compound may be hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere if specified. Keep away from incompatible materials.
