Quality Control

Our n-(2-Methyl-5-Aminophenyl)Glycine is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each production lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity, and IR for structural confirmation. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, documenting all critical quality parameters. Our commitment to quality assurance supports compliance in cGMP-aligned environments for pharmaceutical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage or when opening the primary container to maximize shelf life and maintain product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
