Quality Control

Our 1-Nitro-8-Nitrosopyrene is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR) for structural confirmation, to ensure consistent quality and identity. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting batch-specific results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature, the container should be amber-colored or kept in secondary opaque packaging. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
