About Strychnine

Vaqora Chemicals supplies Strychnine, a high-purity reference standard of Strychnine registered under CAS number 57-24-9. With the molecular formula C21H22N2O2, it has a molar mass of 334.4 g/mol. It is also known as Strychnidin-10-one or Mole death.

The product is provided as a solid. Keep the vial tightly closed, protected from light and humidity, at the temperature stated on the Certificate of Analysis. Under GHS it is labelled “Danger”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

Laboratories use this Strychnine standard for identity and assay testing, system suitability checks and method validation supporting ANDA and DMF filings. Buyers come mainly from pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

We offer Strychnine in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide.
