Good Laboratory Practice
Good Laboratory Practice, or GLP, is a set of principles aimed at ensuring the quality and integrity of non-clinical laboratory studies. It provides a framework for conducting research in a consistent and reliable manner, focusing on the organization, processes, and conditions under which studies are planned, performed, monitored, and reported. This helps ensure that data generated is credible and can be used for regulatory submissions.
GLP is essential in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, environmental studies, and toxicology. By adhering to GLP guidelines, laboratories can improve their operational efficiency and maintain compliance with regulatory requirements, ultimately leading to safer products and better public health outcomes.
