Quality Control

Our 1H-Benzimidazole-4,6-Diol(9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and stringent control of residual solvents and impurities. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
