Quality Control

Our 6-Amino-5-Bromopicolinonitrile is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via NMR and mass spectrometry, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with complete analytical data are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture uptake. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
