MELVILLE, N.Y., June 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Certified Laboratories, a Certified Group company, is pleased to announce the addition of cosmetic, over-the-counter (OTC) drug, and dietary supplement testing capabilities at its Melville, N.Y., testing laboratory. The lab is now FDA-registered for OTC drug testing, adding to its status as an ISO 17025-accredited and current Good Manufacturing Practices/Good Laboratory Practices-compliant lab.

"Clients in the Northeast U.S. will benefit from having a laboratory closer to their location, which enhances our service and reduces turnaround time," said Todd Shea, Certified Group President of Cosmetics, OTC, and Supplements.

The Melville lab's services for these industries will focus initially on microbiology and include validated methods for routine microbial-limits testing, Preservative Efficacy Testing (PET), and pathogen identification. Analytical chemistry services will be introduced in the coming months.
