Quality Control

Our [4-(Pyrrolidin-1-Ylmethyl)Phenyl]Methanol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and GC-MS, to ensure high purity and consistent identity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your R&D and scale-up activities.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent moisture absorption and potential degradation.
