Quality Control

Our Lumazine, 6,7-Dihydroxy-1,3-Dimethyl- (5Ci) is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

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 properties of being easily oxidized, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon is recommended to maintain product integrity.
