Quality Control

Our 5α-[1-(2-Chloroethyl)3-Nitrosoureido]-2α-Methyl-1,3-Dithiane 1,1,3,3-Tetraoxide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (HPLC), related substances, and residual solvents is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
