Cambrex Opens QC Lab in Italy

Cambrex Corporation has opened a new 120 square meter quality control (QC) laboratory at its site in Paullo, Milan, Italy. The laboratory expands on the current QC facilities that analyze and test its generic API portfolio of products during development and manufacturing. The QC laboratory is now fully operational, having been authorized by the Agenzia Italiana Del Farmaco (AIFA).
 

The additional laboratory space will increase the efficiency of the QC department as the site expands the number of generic APIs in development. New instruments, including a polarimeter and infrared spectrometer, have been added, with the systems linked to secure, electronic data capturing software to allow full traceability in line with regulatory requirements.
 
"Our facility in Milan is the center of the Cambrex’s generic API business, and this investment is the latest in a number of steps we have taken at the site to increase its efficiency and flexibility as we look to grow the portfolio of products that we offer," said Aldo Magnini, managing director, Cambrex Milan. "In the last year the company has made strategic investments to expand its capabilities in research and development, manufacturing, and now QC capabilities, as we look to take advantage of the opportunities that are arising in the generic market."
 
Cambrex manufactures over 70 generic APIs which are produced to cGMP standards at the Milan site, where seven production departments are supported by a pilot plant, kilo scale plant and development and analytical laboratories.
