Quality Control

Our (2Z,6Z)-2,6-Octadiene-1,8-Diol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high chemical and isomeric purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided to guarantee batch-to-batch consistency 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 (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
