Almac has doubled analytical capacity in the past year at its 240,000-sq.-ft. North American headquarters in Souderton, PA. The facility provides full-service, integrated clinical packaging, drug supply management and technology solutions to pharmaceutical and biotech clients.
The facility’s analytical labs provide support for clinical packaging operations as well as standalone analytical services, and are equipped with HPLC, UPLC, GC, UV, IR, DSC, KF and others. The additional lab investment will continue to offer these services as well as polymorph and salt screening and solid form development.
The new lab will also be equipped with the latest bathless dissolution apparatus for rapid and efficient comparative dissolution studies, enhancing flexibility for developing, validating and running assay, dissolution and stability methods under the required ICH stability conditions.
Dr. Aeri Park, Almac’s operations director, said, “We always anticipated growth within our facility and are delighted that it has become necessary so quickly. This is testament to the dedication and commitment of our analytical team and we very much look forward to continued growth, coupled with superlative customer service in supporting clinical packaging operations and our stand-alone analytical and solid form businesses.”
