Quality Control

Our 1-(4-Bromophenyl)Ethylamine Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
