Quality Control

Our 5-Aminomethyl-Nicotinic Acid Methyl Ester is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and development use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
