Quality Control

Our Quinacrine Dihydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, to ensure it meets high-grade standards suitable for research applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and conformance to specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and stored in a dark environment to maintain stability and prevent degradation.
