Quality Control

Every batch of our radiolabeled compounds is produced and analyzed under stringent quality protocols. Radiochemical purity and specific activity are determined by validated analytical methods including radio-HPLC and liquid scintillation counting (LSC). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing batch-specific data on purity, activity, and solvent composition to ensure traceability and reliability for your critical research.

Storage

Preserve in the original supplied container as a solution in a suitable organic solvent (e.g., benzene, toluene) within a tightly closed secondary container, protected from light. Store at recommended temperatures (typically 2-8°C or as specified on the label) in a designated, properly shielded area for radioactive materials. Due to its highly volatile nature, ensure containers are securely sealed and handled in a well-ventilated fume hood to minimize exposure risks.
