Quality Assurance & Control
Northeast Laboratory Services (NEL) strives to provide our customers with quality products and
services. Microbiological culture media is manufactured and packaged in a facility inspected by
the Food and Drug Administration, is compliant with current Good Manufacturing Practices and
21 CFR ยง820.
Our Quality Assurance program ensures all media meets the highest quality specifications to
provide the best possible product to our customers. Our quality testing is comprehensive and
can meet current USP or custom quality testing standards. All in vitro diagnostics are compliant
with applicable CLSI Standards.
Our Quality team will work with custom formulations to provide the testing specifications that
your lab needs. With a BSL-II laboratory on-site, our Quality team can challenge media with
standard or customer-specific organisms to ensure optimal performance.
A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is provided for every batch manufactured to provide a degree
of assurance that the media has met the highest quality specifications.
We are committed to being an integral part of our local and global community, and that our
customers, employees and vendors receive the highest level of respect. While our focus is on
the present, we plan for the future.
