Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If purity <95% or contains significant isomers
Other acyclic monoamine salts fall here if not the specific named compound in 2921.12.0100.
If pre-mixed with immunological buffers
Chapter exclusion (e) sends immunological products to 3002, even if amine-based.
