Quality Control

Our Glutaric Anhydride-1,5-13C2 is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity. Each batch is characterized by advanced analytical techniques including NMR, MS, and HPLC to confirm isotopic enrichment and chemical identity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic purity, chemical purity, and impurity profiles are provided and available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic nature, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) and in a desiccator to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to hydrolysis back to the diacid.
