Quality Control

Our 3,5-Dibromo-2-Hydroxybenzylamine is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, which includes results from tests such as HPLC for assay and purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and heavy metals where applicable. Our quality systems are designed to meet the stringent requirements of research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent exposure to atmospheric moisture, which can affect product stability and performance.
