Pharmaceutical Analysis & Testing
For more than four decades, McCrone Associates has analyzed pharmaceutical samples for a large number of research and manufacturing organizations. Our specialty is identification of particle contamination. Using the skilled microscopists working in our ISO Class 5 cleanroom, we can isolate contaminants and perform analysis to identify the material and find likely sources. All projects begin with an evaluation of your problem and continue with on-site inspections (if needed), analysis of samples and coordination of additional requested services.
