Quality Control

Our 2-Aminopropyl (9Z,12Z)-Octadeca-9,12-Dienoate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assessment and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and industrial use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for purity, identity, and related substances is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
