Quality Control

Our 6-Amino-2-Methylthio-3-Methyluracil is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise customer specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are provided to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research or production standards.

Storage

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