| Our qualifications and experience differ
significantly from organizations that only provide testing services. Since the very
early days of our company, our scientists have been called upon to perform contract R
& D work in the area of pharmaceuticals. We've provided R & D support to a
wide array of clients, large and small. We've also done R & D work for trade
associations, government agencies and consultants. 
As a group, our staff has over 1,000 years of practical
experience and leadership in analyzing situations, developing strategies, creating new
methods and procedures and assisting clients with their products.
As an extension of your business, we can perform any custom
research-oriented project you might not have the time, expertise, or available staff to
accomplish. Our R & D and consulting services include:
- Analytical method development and validation
- Process validation
- Collaborative and comparative projects
- Method transfer
- Cleaning validations (microbiological & residual efficacy)
- Shelf-life and other stability analyses
- Product problem studies
- Consultation in QA/QC methods and procedures
- Regulatory support

All our R & D and consulting efforts are custom designed
in order to meet the special needs of individual clients.
- We begin each project by working with you to clearly define
objectives and possible technical approaches.
- When both sides agree on the project direction, we outline the
recommended tasks, timetables and anticipated costs in a project proposal.
- We begin work only upon client authorization.
- We maintain a close relationship with each client.
- All work is performed under the strictest confidentiality.
