Q Laboratories Opens New Microbiology R&D Facility

CINCINNATIQ Laboratories, Inc., completed construction on its new 5,000-square-foot state-of-the-art Microbiology Research and Development Laboratory facility.

The facility performs an array of third-party validations and research projects. In addition to client designed studies, the laboratory performs AOAC Official Methods of Analysis and Performance Tested Methods studies, Microbiological Challenge Studies, Sanitizer and Disinfectant Efficacy Studies, and MicroVal Certification studies.

This new facility will allow our Microbiology R&D Lab to not only continue to perform large-scale validation projects but also enable us to execute multiple projects simultaneously in a more efficient and expeditious manner," said David Goins, President of Q Laboratories, Inc. The move also will allow other  Q Laboratories departments to expand into the space previously occupied by the Microbiology R&D lab.

The lab is equipped with many features to meet the needs of cutting-edge studies, including UV lighting in the HVAC system and multiple laboratory areas to prevent microbial contamination, and a dedicated area for DNA-based applications and technologies with special flooring, wall and ceiling materials to optimize molecular technology applications.

Q Laboratories, Inc., is an FDA-registered, ISO/IEC 17025 accredited, cGMP/GLP-compliant laboratory providing microbiological, analytical chemistry and research and development laboratory services to the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietary supplement and personal care product industries.
