Quality Control

Our Ethyl 2-Amino-2-Cyanoacetate Oxalate is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics.

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 each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
