Quality Control

Our 5-Iodo-2-Methoxyphenyl 4-Methyl Benzenesulfonate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and heavy metals. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your internal specifications and research requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber glass or opaque to prevent degradation.
