Quality Control

Every batch of Benzyl Chloride, [7-14C] is produced and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure high chemical, radiochemical, and isotopic purity suitable for sensitive research applications. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific activity, purity by HPLC, radiochemical purity, and solvent composition are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at recommended temperatures (typically 2-8°C or as specified on the label). Due to its hygroscopic and highly volatile nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under inert atmosphere when necessary to maintain stability and prevent moisture absorption or concentration changes.
