Microbiology

Bioanalytical Sciences was acquired by LGC on 24 December 2012. Please see the following press release for further details: LGC acquires leading bioanalytical sciences business from Quotient Bioresearch

We have more than 25 years’ experience in providing specialist microbiology services to support the discovery and development of antimicrobials. With a flexible and innovative approach we are focused on providing you with the answers to help progress your goals.

Our GLP accredited site has dedicated laboratories for microbiology, molecular biology, immunochemistry and mass spectrometry. The European central lab of our partner, Clinical Reference Laboratory Inc. (CRL), is based on the same site, facilitating our close collaborative integrated service – QC Global

Together with our partnership with KWS BioTest this gives you access to a total laboratory solution which supports discovery though to post-marketing surveillance.
