Charles River

As a global leader in drug discovery and manufacturing support, Charles River Laboratories provides an essential portfolio of microbial quality control solutions designed to ensure the safety of life-saving therapies. Their high-stakes diagnostic offerings are anchored by the Endosafe® and Celsis® platforms, which streamline the detection of endotoxins and microbial contamination. By integrating rapid technologies like ATP bioluminescence and cartridge-based LAL testing, Charles River enables pharmaceutical and consumer care manufacturers to release products with confidence in a fraction of the time required by traditional methods.

The backbone of these systems is a specialized range of high-performance consumables and ready-to-use reagents that minimize manual variability and accelerate workflows. Key products include the Endosafe® LAL cartridges, which consolidate all necessary reagents into a single-use format, and the Celsis AMPiScreen® assay kits for amplified microbial detection. These are supported by a comprehensive selection of endotoxin-free accessories, such as depyrogenated glass pipettes, reaction tubes, and certified buffer solutions. By focusing on a “consumables-first” approach to quality control, Charles River empowers laboratories to maintain stringent data integrity and regulatory compliance while protecting their manufacturing operations and patient safety.
