Quality Control

Our (3R,3aα,5aα,9aβ,11aα,12R)-3β,3bβ-(Epoxymethano)-4α,12-dihydroxy-3a,3b,4,5,5a,6,7,8,9,9a,9bα,10,11,11a-tetradecahydro-6,6,9a-trimethylphenanthro[1,2-c]furan-1(3H)-one 4-butyrate is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for research and process chemistry. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are provided and available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture uptake. For long-term storage, consider storage under an inert atmosphere.
