Quality Control

Our Propyliodone is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets exacting standards for pharmaceutical intermediate use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting compliance with agreed specifications are provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, 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 to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
