Quality Control

Our Benomyl is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. The product undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for assay determination and identification by infrared spectroscopy. While specific regulatory approvals vary by region, production adheres to principles of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical parameters is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect stability and performance. Keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials.
