Quality Control

Our [(1-Amino-2-Naphthyl)Oxy]Acetic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a 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. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere to mitigate potential oxidation.
