Quality Control

Our Trans,cis-3,6-Nonadien-1-Ol is produced and tested under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity suitable for flavor and fragrance applications. We adhere to relevant industry standards, including FEMA and IFRA guidelines where applicable. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and organoleptic properties are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area at 2-8°C (refrigerated) or as specified on the label to minimize oxidation and volatility. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening and to minimize headspace in containers.
