Analytical-Chemical Laboratory (ACL)

The ACL develops and validates analytical assays used in animal and human studies as well as in vitro studies to quantitatively determine drugs and drug candidates (small molecules, biologicals) as well as their metabolites and endocrine substances in biological samples. For this purpose, chromatographic and mass spectrometric methods (LC-MS/MS, UPLC-MS/MS, DESI- and MALDI-QToF) are used in combination with effective extraction procedures. The assays are validated in an ISO 9001:2015 certified environment according to ICH, EMA and FDA guidelines to meet all legal and regulatory requirements.
