Quality Control

Every batch of Anthrose is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. We provide comprehensive analytical documentation to ensure the material meets the exacting standards required for research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is supplied with each shipment, reporting key parameters such as purity (by HPLC), identity (by NMR and MS), and specific optical rotation. Our quality system is designed to support applications requiring high levels of reproducibility and traceability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider storing at -20°C.
