Quality Control

Our Thiourea, [2-(3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)Ethyl]- (9Ci) is produced under stringent quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity for research and development applications. We provide comprehensive analytical data, including HPLC purity, identity confirmation (IR, NMR), and residual solvent analysis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for every batch upon request, detailing all relevant specifications.

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 opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
