Quality Control

Our 5,15-Di(4-Pyridyl)-10,20-Diphenylporphyrin is manufactured under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity, meeting the rigorous demands of research and development. Each lot is accompanied by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to relevant industry standards, and custom synthesis and purification to specific grades (e.g., >97%, >98%, >99%) are available upon request.

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 light-sensitive nature and propensity to be easily oxidized, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a freezer (-20°C) is recommended for optimal stability.
