Quality Control

Our 2-(4-Ethyl-Phenyl)-Acetamidine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis by GC. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality attributes are provided with each shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your internal specifications and cGMP guidelines where applicable.

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). The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent degradation.
