As part of a continuing programme of expansion, chemistry outsourcing specialist Onyx Scientific has opened new kilo-laboratories at its site in Sunderland in the UK. This expansion provides a substantial increase in Onyx's kilo scale capacity.
The company has also moved into the stability market with the installation and commissioning of new stability ovens, all operating to ICH guidelines.
"With the recent changes to the European Clinical Trials Directive, our clients are demanding GMP material at the earlier stages of development; and we are expanding to meet their needs," said Denise Bowser, Onyx commercial director. "With the addition of a stability service backed up with a comprehensive range of analytical techniques, Onyx is ideally placed to support our customers GMP requirements."
Onyx Scientific employs more than 40 expert scientists in drug development from medicinal chemistry to early stage GMP production. Its GMP systems are MHRA approved.
