Quality Control

Our 1-(4-Hydroxycyclohexyl)-5-Octylbarbituric Acid is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and moisture content. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, detailing all specifications and test results to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
