Quality Control

Our 5-Methoxymethyl-1-(2'-Deoxylyxofuranosyl)Uracil is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and moisture content. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or cGMP-grade requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
