Bacterial Retention Testing
Required by regulatory bodies worldwide, bacterial retention testing (BRT) is a critical step in filter validation. Our skilled validation specialists conduct BRT using each end-user’s worst-case biopharmaceutical processing conditions to ensure a best-case outcome.
Chemical Compatibility Testing
Our physical and chemical compatibility testing services help you comply with GMP guidelines worldwide, proving that your biopharmaceutical filters and single-use systems are not reactive, additive, or absorptive upon contact with drug product.
Filter Integrity Testing
Our integrity testing for sterilizing-grade filters can help you set a test specification for your drug product, then check for leaks or filter damage using pre-use and post-use testing as recommended or required by regulatory agencies and the Parenteral Drug Association (PDA).
Extractables and Leachables
Proving that extractables and leachables from your process aren’t harmful to the final drug product is easier with BioReliance® Validation Services. Our extractables and leachables (E&L) services thoroughly evaluate all contact materials and processes to mitigate concerns about process fluids.
