Eurofins Genomics US Expands Capabilities with New GMP Oligonucleotide Manufacturing Facility

Louisville, KY – [Insert Date] – Eurofins Genomics US is proud to announce the opening of its state-of-the-art Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) oligonucleotide manufacturing facility. This new facility marks a significant milestone in our commitment to excellence and innovation in genomics, enhancing our ability to meet the growing demand for high-quality oligonucleotides for both research and therapeutic applications.

 

Facility Overview

The new GMP facility is designed to provide a cutting-edge environment for the production of oligonucleotides, ensuring the highest standards of quality, safety, and efficiency. One of the key features of the facility is the complete separation of Research Use Only (RUO) and GMP production streams. This separation is critical in preventing cross-contamination and ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory requirements, thereby safeguarding the integrity of our products and processes.

 

     
 

Enhanced Product Quality and Safety: By fully separating RUO and GMP production, the new facility ensures that oligonucleotides intended for therapeutics, clinical, or other regulated industries are manufactured in a controlled environment that adheres to the most rigorous quality standards. This enhances the reliability and safety of our products, which is essential for clinical applications.

Regulatory Compliance: The facility is designed to meet the latest regulatory requirements to ensure that our GMP oligonucleotides are manufactured in compliance with FDA and global standards, facilitating their use in commercial applications worldwide.

     
  

Increased Production Capacity: The expansion significantly increases our manufacturing capacity and our fleet of equipment, allowing us to meet the growing global demand for RUO and GMP-grade oligonucleotides. This increased capacity ensures that our clients receive their products on time, supporting the rapid advancement of research and development in genomics.

Streamlined Operations: The facility incorporates advanced automation and process controls, which enhance production efficiency and reduce the risk of human error. This leads to consistent product quality and shorter lead times, benefiting our customers across various sectors.
