Quality Control

Our 1-Amino-Butaan is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment aligns with cGMP principles where applicable, supporting our customers' regulatory and production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption and evaporation. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
