Quality Control

Our 2-(2-Formylphenyl)-Isonicotinic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with complete batch data are provided to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize headspace in opened containers.
