Quality Control

Our 3-Cyano-6-(2-Furanyl)-2-Hydroxypyridine is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all specifications 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, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect stability and handling properties.
