Quality Control

Our 2-Mercapto-7-Methoxy-4-Methylquinoline, 96% is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity confirmation and identity verification by spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the specified standard of 96% minimum purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation of quality, especially after the original container is opened.
