Quality Control

Our 8-Chloro-4-Hydroxy-6-Methylquinoline-3-Carboxylic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and production. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect stability and handling properties.
