Quality Control

Every batch of 6-Methyl-8-(2-Deoxy-B-D-Ribofuranosyl)Isoxanthopterin is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure identity, purity, and consistency for research applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as HPLC purity, NMR confirmation, and residual solvent levels is available with each shipment and upon request.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a desiccated environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
