Ensuring the viral safety of each product and manufacturing process is critical for compliance and efficacy in clinical trials and product releases. Whether you're working with plasmids, virus seeds, raw materials, cell banks, bulk harvests, drug substances/drug products, clinical materials, viral vaccines, identifying viral contaminants is essential to protect product integrity and meet regulatory standards.
Our world-class facilities offer over 1,000 platform ICHQ2 validated methods and activities related to purity and viral safety. We provide validated In vitro adventitious virus assays and retrovirus assays that comply with US and European guidelines. These assays are designed for characterizing cell banks, bulk harvests and other process intermediates, detecting viruses from animal products and screening virus vectors or vaccines for infectious contaminants. If your testing needs extend beyond our standard assays, our expert scientific advisory team is ready to develop customized solutions to meet your unique requirements.
