Velesco Pharma, a contract provider of early-stage pharmaceutical development and clinical manufacturing, has expanded its cGMP analytical testing capabilities with an expansion of its analytical laboratory in Plymouth, Michigan.

The addition of a new cGMP analytical testing laboratory increases the breadth of services. The main activity supported in the new cGMP-compliant laboratory is the testing of stability samples. Specific testing activity includes: assay and related substances by high-performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) (UV and RI) and UPLC-UV; assay by titration; water content (Karl Fisher); pH; viscosity; osmolality; density/specific gravity; disintegration; dissolution and UV; and hardness and friability for tablets. The laboratory is also suited for the testing of samples for cleaning validation studies, in vitro equivalency determination and test article characterization.
