qPCR Rapid Sterility

Sterility results in 48 hours — not two weeks. Whether a batch passes or fails, faster answers mean faster decisions: release compliant product sooner, or catch contamination early enough to recompound before inventory backs up. Priced competitively to replace your current testing method, not supplement it.

USP <797> Stability Studies

Extend your beyond-use dates with confidence. Our stability programs generate the chemical and physical data you need to support extended BUDs for your compounded sterile preparations — backed by validated, stability-indicating methods.

Category 2Category 3

These studies generate the stability data required to qualify for the extended beyond-use dates that USP <797> permits for Category 2 and Category 3 CSPs — going well beyond the default short-dating limits.

  • Stability-indicating HPLC methods that separate API from degradation products
  • Custom study designs for refrigerated, frozen and room-temperature storage conditions
  • Defined pull points with potency, pH, appearance and container-closure assessment
  • Documentation packages to support extended beyond-use dating under USP <797>
  • Sterility and endotoxin testing integrated at study end points
