Сòòò½APP’s microbiology lab provides specialist microbiology testing services and quality control for drug products that support all phases of product and process development and help to maintain product integrity.
Microbial contamination of drug products is a serious issue in the pharmaceutical industry. The presence of microbes can contaminate sterile environments and cause severe illnesses, particularly with parenteral drugs that are administered directly into the circulatory system. To protect public health and comply with regulatory requirements, testing for the presence of potentially harmful micro-organisms is therefore crucial.Â

- Sterility test method development and validation
- Microbial examination test method development and validation
- Bacterial endotoxin test method validation and testing
