The bacterial endotoxin assay is required as a release criterion for both raw materials used for the production of parenteral drugs and parenteral end products.
In Eurolab we perform the bacterial endotoxin assay using the Gel-Clot Method described in the European Pharmacopoeia, a highly sensitive, accurate, fast and robust method.
These endotoxins represent a significant risk to patients or users, as they are common pyrogenic substances that can be found in medical devices and pharmaceuticals.
This assay is also recommended for the cosmetic industry.
