Quality Control

Our 2-Amino-4-Hydroxy-Pteridine-6-Carbaldehyde is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of research and industrial applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, guaranteeing traceability and compliance with your specifications.

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 sensitivity to oxidation, it is recommended to handle the material under an inert atmosphere for long-term storage and to minimize headspace in opened containers.
