The Inno Bio QC Department is primarily involved with analytical method development, method validation and routine testing. All testing is carried out with a high degree of stringency, to ultimately ensure that the quality, purity and stability of the end-product are assured.
We offer the following services:
Laboratory Analytical Testing Services
- Fully compliant with PIC/S and FDA cGMP guidelines.
Water testing
- Inorganic contaminants (Al, NO3, NH3, Si, Hardness, Chlorine)
- Heavy Metals Limit test (EP/BP)
- Physico-chemical parameters (Silt Density Index, turbidity, pH, USP <645> : conductivity)
- Total Organic Carbon (USP <643>)
- Heterotrophic Plate Count (APHA 9215B, 9215D)
- Bacterial Endotoxins – LAL Kinetic Chromogenic method (USP <85>)
