Quality Control

Every batch of 2,5-Dichloro-6-(Hydroxymethyl)Pyridin-3-Ol is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the material meets the high standards required for research and commercial synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is supplied with each shipment, confirming identity, purity, and impurity profiles as determined by HPLC, NMR, and other relevant analytical techniques.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
