Quality Control

Our R-1-(Carboxyethyl)-n-Benzoylthiolglycinate is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, chiral analysis, and identity confirmation (IR, NMR) to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and process chemistry. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting critical specifications such as assay, enantiomeric excess, and impurity profiles.

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 an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
