Quality Control

Our 6-Formyl-2-Oxo-1,2-Dihydropyridine-3-Carboxylic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your internal quality standards and regulatory requirements.

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 after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
