Quality Control

Our deuterated chemicals are produced and handled under strict quality control protocols to ensure high isotopic purity and chemical integrity. Each batch is characterized by advanced spectroscopic methods, including NMR and Mass Spectrometry, to confirm deuterium incorporation and chemical purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic enrichment (typically >98% D) and standard specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids and oxidizing agents. Due to its organic solvent nature, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed to prevent evaporation and moisture absorption.
