Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-4-(Methyloctadecylamino)Benzoic Acid Monohydrochloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets stringent specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment, ensuring full traceability and compliance with your quality assurance protocols.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
