Intertek to Present and Exhibit at SOT
03 Mar 2016
Ontario, Canada - Intertek, the leading provider of quality and safety services to industries worldwide and Health, Environmental and Regulatory Services (HERS), is pleased to announce that we will be giving a presentation on ‘How ICH M7 Regulatory Guidance is used to Support Toxicological Risk Assessment of Impurities in Drugs and Combination Products’, and has been invited to present five published scientific research posters at the Society of Toxicology (SOT) Annual Meeting in New Orleans, LA from March 13-17, 2016.
Intertek experts Ms. Lois Haighton, Director, Food & Nutrition Group and Dr. Gyuri Vas, Research Fellow, Manager Trace Organic Laboratory will present ‘How ICH M7 Regulatory Guidance is used to Support Toxicological Risk Assessment of Impurities in Drugs and Combination Products’ on March 16, 2016 from 13:30 - 14:30 in Room 212. The recent ICH M7 guidance provides a framework for a step-wise approach for analysis of drug products, and the risk assessment of impurities, the scientific principles of which can be extrapolated to other drug-related evaluations. Potential applications and limitations of ICH M7 are discussed from an analytical and toxicological prospective. Intertek will be able to address your questions during this one hour presentation session.
Intertek will also present five scientific posters at SOT. These poster sessions provide attendees with the opportunity to gain first-hand knowledge about the latest research and advances. “Intertek Scientific & Regulatory Consultancy has been an active participant in the SOT Annual Meeting for more than 20 years”, says Ms. Haighton, “and during this time, we have seen useful advancements in scientific research, and improvements in regulatory policies, arising from this opportunity for individuals from government, academia and industry to come together at the SOT Meeting to interact and share ideas about the diverse areas that toxicology impacts. My colleagues and I are honoured that this year’s SOT Scientific Program Committee, who reviews more than 2,500 abstracts and selects only those that are appropriate for this event’s objectives, has invited Intertek to present five of our most recent scientific papers.”
