Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-2-[(3-Methylphenyl)Methyl]Propanoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of our clients in research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting all critical quality attributes.

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 opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants or an inert atmosphere.
