Quality Control

Every batch of Potassium Thiocyanate-13C-15N is manufactured and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including isotopic enrichment analysis by NMR and MS, to ensure compliance with research-grade standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing isotopic purity, chemical assay, and impurity profile, is provided with each shipment.

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 sealed under anhydrous conditions to prevent degradation.
