Pharmacopoeial analysis

We support our customers throughout the development and manufacturing process, ensuring product integrity from raw material to market via exicpients and API analysis, batch release, product stability studies, and method verification or validation.

A full suite of analytical and preparation equipment enables us to offer analysis for the majority of pharmacopoeia monographs and in addition those to cover all the metallic elements, as well as sulphur, phosphorus, selenium, bromine and iodine. We also conduct residual solvent analysis and dissolution testing, all according to pharmacopoeial methods.

Our scientists’ experience and detailed knowledge of the EP, USP, BP and JP methods enable us to provide our customers with dedicated support for pharmacopoeial analysis.

Stability storage management

In accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cCMP) and International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines, we offer a comprehensive and cost-effective stability storage management and testing service.

Our service includes a range of monitored temperature, humidity, and light stability storage conditions, covering for climatic zones I-IV. We are 21CFR-compliant and can store Schedule I-V controlled drugs. We are experienced in the development of stability indicating methods, including photostability and other stress condition studies.

Whether it is only storage that is required or a combination with in-house analytical testing, we offer comprehensive project management, advice and support from protocol preparation to issue of final reports.

Method development and validation

We specialise in method development and validation to support you with both APIs and drug products through the entire drug lifecycle.

Our cross-laboratory, multi-disciplinary approach and experience of different dosage forms means we can guide and advise on the development of robust, fit-for-purpose methods appropriate for the specific phase of the development lifecycle. Our technical specialists offer a wealth of knowledge and advice on areas ranging from sample preparation and extraction techniques to regulatory aspects.

Following successful method development, we can perform method validation in line with an approved protocol at a level that reflects the ICH requirements for the project type and stage of AP/DP development.

Microbiological analysis

Our expert team assists customers in ensuring the microbiological stability of their products, as well as demonstrating that they meet regulatory requirements.

We perform microbial limits testing for specific pathogens, bacteria, yeast and moulds at all stages of the production cycle, from raw materials right through to finished products. In addition, we also offer preservative efficacy testing, kinetic turbidimetric LAL endotoxin analysis, challenge testing and environmental monitoring to fully the support the microbiological quality of products.
