Our forced degradation studies can help you assess the effects of:
- Mechanical stress
- Exposure to ICH light conditions
- High and low pH
- Temperature excursions
- Freeze and thaw stress
- Oxidation
- Humidity
ICH, EMA and FDA guidelines demand stress testing of all drug substances and drug products. In order to ensure compliance, you need accurate testing to confirm stability indicating analysis, establish potential forced degradation pathways and allow characterization of product-related impurities.
We offer state-of-the-art laboratories and expert methodologies for forced degradation studies during early product development – performed according to ICH Q5C, Q6B and ICH Q1B to support license application in a cGMP compliant laboratory.
Our forced degradation studies can help you assess the effects of:
Stability indicating methods for a wide range of biopharmaceutical products can be developed, validated and transferred under ICH’s guidance. The following analytical techniques are available for evaluation of forced degradation and stability studies:
A full range of pharmacopeial and analytical methods are available for characterization and elucidation of product-related impurities.
As a world-leading provider of services to the life sciences sector, we offer unrivaled expertise in forced degradation studies, providing the largest network of contract testing laboratories. With 29 facilities across 15 countries, we offer clinical research services, analytical development, biologics characterization, utilities qualification, biosafety, quality control testing and stability studies for leading bio/pharmaceuticals across the world.
