Quality Control

Our Isoquinoline, 6-Isothiocyanato- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR, MS) for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic and spectral data are provided to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
