Quality Control

Our 5,7-Dihydroxy-2-Isopropylchromone is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets rigorous R&D and production standards. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity for oxidation, prolonged exposure to light and air should be minimized. For long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere.
