Quality Control

Our 2,3,4,6-Tetra-o-Acetyl-1-Bromo-1-Deoxy-β-D-Galactopyranosyl Cyanide is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided to guarantee reproducible performance and supply chain reliability for your critical research and development projects.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C or as indicated on the label. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container should be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to maintain stability and prevent decomposition. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
