Quality Control

Our 1-(2-Chloroethyl)-3-(4-Hydroxybutyl)-1-Nitrosourea is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and moisture content. We provide full traceability and Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for all shipments to ensure compliance with your research and development 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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
