Quality Control

Our 5-Amino-3,6-Dichloropyrazine-2-Carboxylic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and 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. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
