Quality Control

Our 3,6-Dimethyl-3-Vinylhept-5-En-2-Ol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent composition. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

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). 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 heat, sparks, and open flames.
