Characterization

Characterization testing is used to gain an understanding of the physical and chemical properties of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical materials. During process and drug development, these properties can have an impact on the product’s performance, stability, appearance, and other critical quality attributes. Therefore, a well characterized pharmaceutical, or biopharmaceutical, is integral to moving a candidate through development and to the market.

Due to the complex nature of these materials, extensive testing utilizing a wide variety of techniques is required. Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing network of laboratories performs an array of characterization testing services for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products to support formulation or process development, quality control, cGMP lot release testing and investigational manufacturing troubleshooting, including:

• Characterization for Pharmaceutical Products
• Characterization for Biopharmaceutical Products
• NMR Characterization and QC Testing
• Solid State Characterization
