Quality Control

Our S-(2-Aminopentyl)Isothiourea is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and spectroscopic identification (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and development use. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting the specific results for that batch.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
