Quality Control

Our 1-Cyclopropyl-3-Methyl-3-Nitrosourea is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency, meeting the high standards required for research and development applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay (HPLC), related substances, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and reliability for your critical work.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature, the container should be opaque or stored in dark conditions. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
