Quality Control

Our 1-Bromo-7-Phenylheptane is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to verify identity and purity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids and incompatible organic solvents. The container should be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
