Quality Control

Our Guanidine, n-Ethyl-n-Nitroso- is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity suitable for research and industrial synthesis. Each lot is analyzed using advanced techniques including HPLC, NMR, and FTIR to confirm identity and purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
