Quality Control

Our n-(4-Chlorophenyl)Guanidine is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each production lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and elemental analysis, to confirm identity and purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our clients in regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area 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 such as strong oxidizing agents.
