Quality Control

Our 1-[(2-Hydroxyethyl)[4-[(2-Hydroxyethyl)Amino]Butyl]Amino]Propan-2-Ol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical specifications is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture and potential degradation. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to minimize oxidation.
