Pharmaceutical (PHARMASSURE)

Our UKAS-accredited PHARMASSURE proficiency testing scheme has been specifically designed to meet the needs of the pharmaceutical industry, with test materials provided for chemical and microbiological analysis, including sterility testing.

The regulations surrounding the manufacture of pharmaceutical products and laboratories testing them are wide-ranging, and compliance with GMP/GLP requirements is aimed at ensuring the safety and efficacy of all pharmaceutical preparations.

Regular participation in our PT scheme offers a truly independent assessment of measurement quality, which enables participants to compare their analytical capabilities with peers. Managers are also able to monitor trends in their laboratory’s performance over time and enhance individual training as they take part in assessment. Successful participation in PHARMASSURE is recognised as a demonstration of laboratory quality and competency by a range of third parties, customers, regulators and accreditation bodies.
