GLP
Good Laboratory Practice, or GLP, is a set of principles aimed at ensuring the quality and integrity of non-clinical laboratory studies. These guidelines are designed to promote consistency and reliability in research, particularly in fields like pharmaceuticals, toxicology, and environmental studies. By adhering to GLP, laboratories can produce data that is acceptable for regulatory submissions.
GLP covers various aspects of laboratory operations, including personnel training, equipment maintenance, and study protocols. It emphasizes proper documentation and record-keeping to ensure that all procedures are transparent and reproducible. This framework helps protect public health and the environment by ensuring that scientific studies are conducted rigorously and ethically.
