Quality Control

Our 2-(1-Methyl-5-Nitroimidazolyl)-4,4-Bis(Hydroxymethyl)Oxazolidine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results are provided with each 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 (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
