Quality Control

Our 5-Hydroxyisoquinoline-4-Carboxylic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided to guarantee traceability, consistency, and reliability for your critical processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
