Quality Control

Our 5-[(4-Aminophenyl)Methyl]-o-Toluidine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

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 sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening to prevent degradation and moisture absorption. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
