Laboratory Testing Support for Medical Device Startups
Comprehensive Laboratory Testing Support for Medical Device Startups from Early Development Through Commercialization
Developing a successful medical device requires more than a single laboratory test. Startups
often need an experienced scientific partner capable of supporting multiple stages of product
development—from early material evaluations and prototype testing to validation, regulatory
preparation, and commercialization.
As development progresses, testing requirements evolve. Materials change, prototypes
improve, manufacturing processes mature, and additional scientific questions arise. Having
access to a multidisciplinary laboratory capable of supporting these changing needs helps
startups make informed decisions while maintaining development momentum.

PFAS Water Testing
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have emerged as one of the most critical environmental and public health concerns worldwide. Often referred to as “forever chemicals,” PFAS compounds are highly persistent, resistant to degradation, and capable of accumulating in water systems, soil, and the human body over time.
Drinking Water Contaminant Analysis
Drinking water is one of the most critical resources for public health, and even trace levels of contaminants can pose serious risks. Contamination may originate from natural sources, industrial activities, aging infrastructure, or environmental exposure, making regular and precise testing essential.
Heavy Metal Testing
Heavy metals such as lead (Pb), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg) are among the most critical contaminants monitored across industries including food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, medical devices, and environmental systems.
Water Testing
Drinking water quality directly impacts public health, industrial operations, and regulatory compliance. Whether supplied through municipal systems, private wells, or industrial infrastructure, water must meet strict safety standards to ensure it is free from harmful contaminants.
