Exosome Quality Evaluation Services

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, are increasingly attracting attention for their therapeutic use and functionality as drug delivery system (DDS). Several EV-based products are under development, and exosome therapies are already being implemented in some advanced clinics and medical institutions. Beyond pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, EVs are widely being used in cosmetics, food and other sectors. Thus, we provide comprehensive quality evaluation services on exosome/EV products for medical use; development of pharmaceuticals; and applications in cosmetics and food. We can provide reliable and trustworthy data on EV quality evaluation.

Key Features

  • Quality testing is conducted in accordance with ISO 9001 (Quality management systems—Requirements) or GMP, as applicable.
  • We provide end‑to‑end support from analytical method development to validation and to testing.
  • We preform product-specific evaluation testing according to the requests from our clients.
