Quality Control

Our Cyclopropylmethyl Isothiocyanate is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC and HPLC, to ensure high chemical purity and identity confirmation. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment 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 area. Due to its reactivity as a strong acid/organic solvent, keep away from heat, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong bases and amines. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
