Quality Control

Our Sodiumorthoarsenite is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity and composition. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profiles, and physical characteristics are provided to guarantee traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a low-humidity environment. For long-term stability, storage at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) is recommended.
