Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for research and development. Each batch is characterized to confirm identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific test results, including assay (by titration or HPLC), chloride content, and residual solvent analysis, are available upon request.

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 after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccator.
