Quality Control

Our 2,3-Pyrazinedicarbonitrile,5-(Hydroxymethyl)-6-Methyl-(9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure compliance with exacting standards for research and development use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation.

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 and consideration should be given to storage under an inert atmosphere for long-term preservation of quality.
