Quality Control

Our Germanium68 is produced and handled under stringent quality protocols to ensure isotopic purity and chemical integrity. Each batch is analyzed using advanced techniques such as Mass Spectrometry (MS) to verify isotopic enrichment levels and the absence of significant radioactive contaminants. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic composition, radionuclidic purity, and specific activity is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with research-grade specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its nature as an easily oxidized material, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation. Keep away from incompatible materials and follow all applicable radiation safety regulations for handling and storage.
