Full-Service Sampling, Analytical Testing, and Validation

BA Sciences’s headquarters serve New Hampshire and the entire region. We offer comprehensive sampling and testing solutions designed for the stringent requirements of the pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and medical device industries, as well as manufacturing and consumer products. Our testing and validation services are designed to aid you in the CMC (chemistry, manufacturing, and controls) stages and why we are considered the most reliable facility among many pharmaceutical testing companies.

We understand the time-critical needs and strict quality requirements for testing, analyzing, and validating new chemical or organic drug formulations. We can measure, analyze, and test the efficacy, strength, and potency of new drugs while helping narrow down the proper dosage so it’s safe long before its introduction to consumers.

Analytical Testing

  • Dissolution testing
    • Over 25 years of experience in pharmaceutical dissolution analysis
