Good Laboratory Practices (GLP)

Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) are a set of guidelines designed to ensure the quality and integrity of non-clinical laboratory studies, particularly those related to pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and other products. GLP establishes standards for how research is conducted, including proper documentation, equipment maintenance, and staff training. These practices help guarantee that results are valid and can be trusted by regulatory bodies, which is essential for safety assessments and product approvals. By following GLP, laboratories can ensure that their findings are reliable and that they adhere to ethical and professional standards.
