Hydrazine Hydrate turning yellow


so i made some freebase hydrazine a bit ago and i freebased the hydrazine with IPA and distilled it. it came over clear and i put it in storage, i came back the next day and it was yellow, I'm not sure how this happened and if its still safe to use. there was no light or anything to interact with it, the color is a light-colored yellow, like nitric acid with NO2 in it. i mainly just wondering if its safe and if i should use it, or re-distill. i would rather not distill it again if I don't have to because that takes up a lot of time.
I'm going to be using this for NHN synthesis.
and other hydrazine based reactions

You need to be more specific with you details! How does IPA (= isopropyl alcohol I presume) free base hydrazine and from what?

My crystal ball is a bit murky today but surely there was a good deal of alkali involved somewhere along the line?
