Quality Control

Our 5-(Bromomethyl)Pyrimidine Xhydrobromide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR for structural confirmation, and KF titration for moisture content, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, guaranteeing traceability, consistency, and compliance with your specifications.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. Keep away from incompatible materials.
