Quality Control

Our 3-Phenyl-5-Mercapto-1,3,4-Thiazolethione Potassium Salt is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We employ advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC and NMR, for precise characterization. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
