Quality Control

Our 3,6-Dihydroxy-1,2,7-Trimethoxyxanthone is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and propensity for oxidation, prolonged exposure to light, heat, or air should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
