Quality Control

Our production of Amino-(3,5-Dibromo-4-Hydroxy-Phenyl)-Acetic Acid adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with customer-specific requirements and general industry standards for fine chemical intermediates.

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.
