Analytics and 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 our own manufacturing and import authorisation on site. Test results and release come from a single source.

For testing and EU retesting
From method transfer to the released batch.
For medicinal products from third countries, EU law generally requires full testing of each batch in the EU before a Qualified Person certifies it. In Itzehoe, both happen side by side: the analytics in our own laboratory and the release. That saves handovers and time. 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 Section 14 AMG
