Quality Control

Our 2,2',5,5'-Tetrahydroxy-4-[(2E,6E,10E)-3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-2,6,10,14-hexadecatetrenyl]-4'-[(2E,6E)-3,7,11-trimethyl-2,6,10-dodecatrienyl]-1,1'-bi[1,4-cyclohexadiene]-3,3',6,6'-tetrone is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via NMR and MS, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) to minimize oxidation and degradation. Keep the container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from heat sources and incompatible materials.
