Commercial Manufacturing – Fill and Finish
We are specialized in two distinct dosage forms: liquid products aseptically filled and lyophilized products, both filled in vials.
Capacities:
- Aseptic Filling
- Liquid Filling
- Complex Formulation
- Peptides
- Biological Products
- Controlled Substances
- Small Molecules
- Sterile Suspensions

- In Process Controls (IPC).
- Sampling of the finished product to carry out the release testing.
Release Testing
In accordance with GMP, verification of the applicability of analytical and microbiological methods are performed to guarantee reliable and reproducible results.
a) Microbiological methods:
- Bioburden Test
- Sterility Test
b) Physico-chemical methods:
- HPLC/UPLC
- Endotoxin Test
Stability Studies
