Quality Control

Our 5-Amino-6-Bromopicolinonitrile is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for purity, identity, and impurities is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept sealed under an inert atmosphere if necessary and opened with minimal exposure to ambient humidity.
