Vitro

Due to the pressing requests from stakeholders and international regulatory compliance, Eurochem Ricerche has always been driven to develop and implement the most modern in vitro analytical techniques, to replace or support the more ethically discussed animal or in vivo practices. This research, and the constant update on world achievements in this field, have always been our pride, which over time is rooted in a company’s mission.

Eurochem Ricerche uses an integrated multi-instrumental approach that exploits the potential of multiple techniques to provide solid evidential support for both existing and new or desired claims.

For this reason, our in vitro tests are designed with the aim of giving shape and value to the marketing requests of our customers, before or in combination with clinical studies.
