Laboratory Facilities
Our large facilities are intended to be flexible for excess volume and continuity of service to guard against interruption. In many instances we are able to take-on projects of any size with quick turnaround times on short notice.
Labstat operates 3 facilities totaling 31,500 square feet:
- 2 laboratory facilities at separate addresses (25,000 square feet and 3,500 square feet); and
- an offsite, secure, long-term storage facility in a controlled environment setting.
Our laboratory size provides us with the flexibility to expand capacity if challenged with above normal client requests. All of our facilities are secure to protect client confidentiality, safeguard data and product, and maintain continuity of service.
Labstat has implemented a redundancy plan that ensures continuity of service (Chemistry and Toxicology) if one laboratory should be rendered inoperable for an extended period of time. Our 2 laboratories operate daily and are located in separate buildings. Each laboratory contains smoking machines, controlled environment rooms, toxicology laboratories, and testing equipment.
Controlled Environment Rooms for Smoking and Conditioning
Maintaining the conditioning atmosphere in the test environment is essential to the success of tobacco product evaluation. Our laboratories have a total of 7-controlled environment rooms housing our smoking machines and related equipment as required for ISO and FTC type smoking. We also maintain 1 large partitioned controlled environment room for conditioning all tobacco products.
Toxicology Laboratories
Each of our 2 laboratories contain in-vitro toxicology facilities with capabilities that include AMES, Neutral Red (NRU) and Micronucleus, testing.
