Microbiology Testing
Pharmaceuticals, biopharmaceuticals, biologics and medical devices need to be produced in accordance to the strictest cGMP requirements and must have release testing packages carefully designed to demonstrate compliance. Microbiology testing provides knowledge and understanding to the presence of any microorganisms and toxins in raw materials, intermediates, finished products, etc.
Our microbiology testing service is performed to internationally recognised methods such as European, United States and British Pharmacopoeias and we have the capability to develop bespoke microbiological testing methods to meet client specific requirements.
Our significant experience in cGMP microbiology testing of raw materials, finished products and water systems includes oral products (liquids, capsules, tablets etc), topical products (creams and ointments), injectables, transdermal, ophthalmic, purified, potable and in-process water systems.
