Veterinary/Animal Healthcare manufacturers are pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical companies that invest in research and development to create innovative medicines for food producing and companion animals. They are subject to a variety of laws and regulations regarding the patenting, testing and ensuring the health and safety of animals, humans, and the food supply.
The various Pharmacopoeias (USP, EP, BP, JP etc) provide monographs for the testing of many of the most commonly used raw materials in the industry. Pharmacopoeias frequently used at Butterworth include:
- European Pharmacopoeia – Ph. Eur.
- United States Pharmacopoeia – USP
- British Pharmacopoeia – BP
- Japanese Pharmacopoeia – JP
- Chinese Pharmacopoeia – ChP
Where there is no applicable method, our Projects Team have the capability to develop and validate one to your requirements, or alternatively, we can use your own.
