Quality Control

Our Propiophenone, α-Amino-3-Hydroxy-4-Methyl-, HCl (3Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity assessment, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data (HPLC, GC) are provided to guarantee traceability, consistency, and compliance with your specific research or production requirements.

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. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
