How should samples for testing be prepared?

Samples must be collected in a clean and controlled environment to ensure they are not contaminated. This prevents the risk of false positives and other complications that can skew the results.

What needs to be tested?

All ingredients of a pharmaceutical product, including excipients and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, must be tested.

How long does the testing process take?

Testing can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. This depends on the complexity of the product being tested as well as the testing methods required.
