Quality Control

Our 3,4-Dihydroxyethylamphetamine is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identity confirmation, purity assay, and impurity profiling using advanced techniques like HPLC and GC-MS. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research or production specifications.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
