Quality Control

Our 2-Quinolinecarboxylic Acid, 6,7-Dihydroxy- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters including assay, impurity profile, and physical characterization. Our quality commitment supports research and development requiring reliable and traceable high-purity intermediates.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature and propensity for oxidation, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize exposure to air and humidity upon opening.
