Quality Control

Our 6-Amino-1-Methylquinolin-2(1H)-One is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and MS, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. Our quality commitment supports applications requiring high-purity intermediates for research and cGMP manufacturing.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C.
