Quality Control

Every batch of 2-(Carboxymethylamino)Nicotinic Acid is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system to ensure consistency and reliability for your critical applications. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, detailing key parameters such as purity, identity, and impurity profiles.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, maintain at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a desiccated environment. Ensure the storage area is well-ventilated and separate from incompatible materials.
