Quality Control

Our 1-(2-Chloroethyl)-1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-3-Nitroso-Urea is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods. We provide full traceability and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all critical quality parameters to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of research and development applications.

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.
