Quality Control

Every batch of 2-Pyridineaceticacid,α-Amino-5-Hydroxy-(9Ci) is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the identity, purity, and consistency required for research and development applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (HPLC), chiral purity, and impurity profile is available with each shipment and upon request.

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.
