Accurate species-level identification of bacteria, fungi, and yeasts using biochemical and molecular methods (e.g., MALDI-TOF).
Growth Promotion Testing (GPT)
Verification of media performance to support microbial recovery in microbiological assays, as required by GMP guidelines.
Microbial Limit Testing (MLT)
Quantitative testing to assess the bioburden of non-sterile drug products and raw materials.
