Quality Control

Our n-Isonicotinoylalanine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability, consistency, and compliance with your specifications.

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 hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccant.
