By using the most advanced GLP study designs and guidelines, along with our innovative and integrated approach, Pharmaron’s team of genetic toxicology experts can evaluate the genotoxic potential in a GLP-compliant manner.

In addition, we help our partners successfully screen their compounds to identify if there is a potential for genetic damage or genotoxic impurities.

Pharmaron’s safety assessment team provides genotoxicity screening assays for discovery programs and standard GLP genotoxicity assays supporting regulatory guidelines and GLP standards.
