Quality Control

Our Nicotinic Acid, 2-Amino-4,5,6-Trimethyl-, Ethyl Ester (6Ci) is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency, meeting the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic and spectroscopic data are provided to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch reliability.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
