Quality Control

Every batch of our radiolabeled compounds is produced and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure high chemical and radiochemical purity, as well as specific activity consistency. Comprehensive analysis is performed using techniques including HPLC with radiometric detection, TLC, and NMR spectroscopy. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, documenting purity, specific activity, solvent composition, and analytical chromatograms.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at or below -20°C in the original solvent as supplied. Due to its highly volatile nature and light sensitivity, minimize exposure to air and ambient light during handling. Store in a dedicated, well-ventilated area for radioactive materials in accordance with local regulations.
