Quality Control

Our Rubidium Chloride 86Rb is produced and handled under strict quality protocols to ensure isotopic purity, radionuclidic purity, and chemical consistency. Each batch is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific activity, radionuclidic purity, chemical purity, and pH. We adhere to relevant Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) principles for radioactive materials. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a designated, secure, and appropriately shielded radioactive materials area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept in a dry environment. All storage and handling must comply with local and international regulations for radioactive substances.
