Quality Control

Our 7-Benzothiazolethiol(9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistent performance. We provide detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, which include data from HPLC, NMR, and other relevant identification and purity tests. Our quality systems are designed to meet the stringent requirements of research and industrial applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its property of being easily oxidized, it is recommended to store the product under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to maintain optimal purity and stability. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
