Quality Control

Our o-Methyl Candicine Iodide is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic and spectroscopic data (HPLC, NMR, MS) upon request, supporting its use in research and development applications.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
