Testing and batch release under one roof.
In Itzehoe, our GMP-certified laboratory tests medicinal products, active substances and starting materials, and a Qualified Person releases the batches under the site's own manufacturing and import authorisation. Test results and batch release come from one provider.

For testing and EU retesting
From method transfer to released batch.
For medicinal products from third countries, EU law generally requires full testing of every batch in the EU before a Qualified Person certifies it. In Itzehoe, both happen in one place: testing in our own laboratory and batch release. That means fewer handovers and less time lost. Exceptions apply to products from countries with a mutual recognition agreement (MRA) that covers them, for example Switzerland, the USA, Canada or Israel. There is no such agreement with India, China, Turkey or Taiwan.
- 01 Release testing and EU retesting to your specification
- 02 Method transfer, validation and method development under GMP
- 03 Trace analysis by triple quadrupole LC-MS/MS, for example for nitrosamines
- 04 Batch release by a Qualified Person under § 14 AMG
