Quality Control

Our Ketone, Methyl Pyrazinyl, 4-Oxide (6Ci) is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided and available upon request to support your regulatory and R&D needs.

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.
