Quality & Compliance

Every batch released on data

Quality at CTA is built on an in-house analytical laboratory, documented test methods and a stack of internationally recognised certifications.

Our Lab

In-house analytical control

CTA operates an in-house analytical laboratory so that identity, assay and safety testing happen under the company's own control — not outsourced and not assumed. No batch is released to a customer until it has been tested and documented.

The laboratory's instrument list and full method scope are to be confirmed by CTA's technical team; the capability below reflects the standard analytical programme for a standardised-extract manufacturer.
