Quality Control

Every batch of 2-Butanone, 4-(Methylnitrosoamino)- (9Ci) is produced and controlled under a strict quality management system. We provide comprehensive analytical documentation to support research and regulatory requirements. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles as confirmed by advanced analytical techniques.

Storage

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