Quality Focus
Vitrology Limited performs regulatory studies to the highest standards, with a dedicated team of experts not only in science but also in our quality department. Our commitment to adhere to the quality standards in all areas of our business is reaffirmed by both clients and inspectors.

The management recognizes that a client requires to source verifiable results for all regulatory studies, so we have developed and validated each assay to meet current GLP, ICH and GMP guidelines. The system of quality assurance in place at Vitrology takes account of the requirements of MHRA, OECD and FDA regulations etc.

Quality Assurance is a wide ranging concept which covers all matters which individually or collectively influence the quality of the testing process. Systems and practices within Vitrology add quality and integrity to every stage and aspect of the regulatory study process from client discussion to final report dispatch and beyond as per our client needs.

We actively promote an environment of constant improvement to meet the changing needs of individual clients and regulatory requirements. Vitrology Limited will welcome clients to come and see for themselves the good work that is being done within our contract research organisation.

Compliance Statement
Vitrology Limited has ensured that the systems and practices within the test facility are in compliance with both GLP and GMP regulations defined by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). A quality assurance programme is in place and has been inspected by the MHRA, with designated experienced personnel to assure, the client and a regulatory authority, that each assay is planned, performed, monitored, recorded, reported and archived in accordance with GLP and GMP.

The adherence of Vitrology to these principles ensures the proper planning of studies and the adequate means to carry them out. Facilitating the proper conduct of studies, promoting full and accurate reporting provides a means whereby the validity and integrity of a regulatory study can be verified.

The internationally accepted principles of GLP and GMP were developed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). GLP principles and other associated OECD documents were subsequently ratified by the European Commission and transposed into EC Directives. The GLP and GMP regulations implement these directives within the United Kingdom.

Technical Agreement
Contract analysis must be clearly defined, agreed and controlled in order to avoid misunderstandings which could result in a product or work of unsatisfactory quality. To ensure there is a clear understanding between Vitrology and the client our experienced sales and technical teams will provide an expert analysis of the assays required to be performed. The Technical Agreement is prepared to delineate and establish the areas and responsibilities of both the client and Vitrology Limited.
