Quality Control

Our 1-Hydroxycyclopentane-1-Sulfonic Acid, Sodium Salt is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics are available upon request. We are committed to meeting the exacting standards required for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
