Quality Control

Our Benzeneacetic Acid, 3-Hydroxy-4-Methoxy-A-[(3,4,5-Trimethoxyphenyl)Methylene]-, (Ae)- is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP starting material 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 light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability, especially after opening the primary container. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
