Eurofins Genomics, the genomics division of the Eurofins Scientific Group and market leader in DNA synthesis, has rolled out its Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) oligonucleotide offerings across Europe to meet the growing demand of cGMP manufacturing for IVD (in vitro diagnostic) and ASR (analytic specific reagents) applications within the clinical, pharmaceutical, food safety and animal health market.

Eurofins Genomics recently introduced cGMP products in the Americas. The growing demand in Europe for these type of products and services led to the roll-out of the GMP sales and service support in Europe. Regulatory requirements must adhere to highly standardised process controls. They are applied during the early stages of research and development and through the commercialisation of products and services. Eurofins Genomics wants to meet this demand by offering customised cGMP services that are handled through specialists to support full commercialisation - from pilot projects through to the manufacturing of small and large scale cGMP oligonucleotides which require regulatory documentation. In addition, Eurofins Genomics supports cGMP ASR manufacturing and testing for genomic platforms.

Eurofins Genomics is internationally recognised by the ISO 13485 certification and FDA cGMP registration.

“We have seen a large increase in requests for GMP compliant services from our international customer base. With the offering of custom cGMP oligonucleotides, customers have streamlined access to dedicated products with highly standardised process controls, documentation and a map of expected milestones," says Peter Persigehl, General Manager Eurofins Genomics Europe.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.Clinical GeneticsMolecular Genetics covers the analysis of hereditary genetic disease and chromosomal abnormalities. Genetics can be analysed using DNA, RNA, and protein microarrays, PCR, RT PCR and DNA sequencing. Genetic equipment includes genetic workstations, thermal cyclers, cooling blocks and electrophoresis products. Diagnostic kits are used for DNA / RNA extraction and purification.Food and Beverage AnalyzersFood and Beverage Analyzers are commonly used to provide information about the chemical composition, structure and physical properties of food materials.RegulatoryPharmaceutical regulations impact on all areas of drug development, manufacture and control and supply. Services are provided from the early stages of drug development and clinical trials through to dossier submission, approval and marketing. Regulatory also includes submission of analytical studies from the pharmaceutical product and safety. OligosIn Vitro DiagnosticsIn vitro diagnostics (IVD) involve testing samples outside the body, typically in a laboratory, to diagnose diseases or conditions. IVD technologies include blood tests, molecular assays, and other bodily fluid tests, enabling accurate diagnosis and monitoring of diseases. These tests are essential for guiding treatment decisions in clinical settings.
