We offer a comprehensive array of analytical testing services and expert scientific consultancy from our GMP/GLP and ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories, to meet the needs of clients across the life sciences sector.

 

What is analytical testing?

Analytical testing within the life sciences industry involves the examination of substances, compounds, or materials to understand their chemical composition and behaviors.

 

Why is analytical testing important?

Analytical testing is required to meet regulatory compliance set by agencies like the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) or EMA (European Medicines Agency). It is a critical process within the product development of medical devices and pharmaceutical products to evaluate and mitigate potential toxicological risks for patients or end-users.

Ensuring product compliance 

Navigating compliance challenges can present difficulties in product and drug development projects. We help pharmaceutical manufacturers screen drug active ingredients, examine packaging materials, the chemical analyses of pharmaceutical containers and stoppers, and the analysis of raw materials used in manufacturing processes. For medical device manufacturers, our analytical testing ensures materials meet stringent standards to minimize the risk of biocompatibility issues.
