Quality Control

Every batch of Dimethyl Sulfate-14C is produced and analyzed under stringent quality control protocols to ensure high chemical and radiochemical purity, essential for reliable research data. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific activity, purity, and analytical methods (e.g., HPLC, radio-HPLC) are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, containers must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere if specified. Specific storage temperature recommendations are provided on the product label and COA.
