Quality Control

Our Acetamide, n-[6-Hydroxy-5-(Hydroxymethyl)Hexyl]- is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request, supporting applications in regulated research environments.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect purity and stability. Keep away from incompatible materials.
