Quality Control

Our 4-Iodo-2-Methylbut-1-Ene is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to verify identity, potency, and impurity profiles. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are provided with every shipment and are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber-colored or stored in light-resistant secondary packaging.
