Overview of OECD approved GLP labs in China

Date:05-25-2015

With an increasing number of Chinese agrochemical enterprises endeavoring to extend overseas supply chain via independent registrations, the OECD-GLP labs have to face more diverse service requirements from generic chemical companies, besides the comprehensive testing services, part of clients also ask for registration support and marketing support, which will become both opportunities & challenges for GLP labs. Therefore Agropages made a preliminary survey for domestic and multinational GLP labs in China, to help Chinese agrochemical enterprises locate suitable partners to develop overseas market.

Indigenous OECD-GLP labs in China

Today in the agrochemical industry of China, there are total of 11 indigenous Contract Research Organizations (CRO) received the OCED-GLP certifications with physical-chemical testing, 8 of them obtained the OCED-GLP certifications for analytical and clinical chemistry testing, but so far only Shenyang Research Insititute of Sinochem Group received the OECD certification with toxicology and ecotoxicology testing. 3 of them only undertake testing programs from their parent companies, they are FMC(Shanghai) Chemical Technology Co.,Ltd, Rotam Research Laboratory and Pilarquim(Shanghai) Co.,Ltd.

Additionally, Nutrichem GLP Lab is applying for OECD certification of Ecotoxicology testing, and Suzhou XishanZhongke Drug R&dCo.,Ltd plans to apply for AAALAC and OECD certification of Toxicology testing.
