Quality Control

Our 5-[(4-Bromo-2-Chlorophenoxy)Methyl]-2-Furoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive analytical data, including HPLC chromatograms and NMR spectra, to verify identity and purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specification parameters are available for every batch and provided upon request.

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 hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
