Testing Services
Testing Services Status
NITMIBIO is building contracted HPLC and LC-MS testing services for research-use samples. Here is where things stand and what members can expect.
Not yet accepting member submissions
Our testing capacity is currently committed under contract to a single organization. While that engagement is active, we are not accepting samples or testing requests from members or the public. We expect to open testing services to members in 2027.
What this means for members
No sample intake yet
Please do not ship samples to NITMIBIO for testing. Unsolicited samples cannot be accepted, tested, or returned.
Products are unaffected
Compounds and Standards are still available. Every applicable lot keeps its batch-specific Certificate of Analysis and QR-linked lot record.
Confidentiality comes first
We do not disclose the name of our contract client or any details of their work. We will extend the same confidentiality to every member who uses our testing services.
