Quality Control

Our 1-(6-Fluoropyridin-3-Yl)Ethanol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and agrochemical R&D. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity (by HPLC), chiral excess, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

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.
