Quality & COA

Quality, COAs and cold chain

What is on the certificate, how a lot is released, and the one thing about our facility we disclose rather than market.

A lot is not released because it looks right. It is released because a defined panel of tests came back inside its limits, and the certificate names every one of them.

What release actually is

A lot does not leave because somebody looked at it and was satisfied. It leaves because a written panel of tests came back inside limits that were set before the lot existed, and the certificate names every test, every limit and every result — including the ones that only just passed.

Sterility is the slow one. It is a fourteen-day incubation, and no amount of commercial pressure shortens it.

MSC lot release

  • Viability (≥ 80% post-thaw)
  • Cell count
  • ISCT surface-marker panel by flow cytometry
  • Tri-lineage differentiation (lot qualification)
  • Sterility (USP <71>)
  • Endotoxin (USP <85>)
  • Mycoplasma
  • Karyotype / genomic stability

Exosome lot release (extended)

  • Particle count and size distribution by NTA
  • Tetraspanin markers (CD9 / CD63 / CD81)
  • Total protein
  • Sterility (USP <71>)
  • Endotoxin (USP <85>)
  • Mycoplasma
  • Particle:protein purity ratio
  • Absence markers (calnexin)
  • Functional potency surrogate
  • Residual-reagent assay

Disclosure

Human and equine tissue in one facility

Both grades are manufactured in the same cGMP facility. That is an efficiency, and it is also a cross-contamination risk that has to be controlled and disclosed rather than sold as a feature.

  • Campaign-based changeover with documented cleaning validation between species.
  • Physical and temporal segregation of human and equine tissue processing.
  • Donor eligibility, serology and nucleic-acid testing records retained per lot.
  • Species identity confirmed on the finished product, not assumed from the batch record.
What a COA cannot tell you

We do not claim our manufacturing standard makes the product work better. Manufacturing quality controls what is in the vial and how consistent it is. It does not create clinical evidence, and no certificate can substitute for a trial.

Cold chain: each case carries an irreversible time-temperature indicator. The indicator is the sensor; the QR code is how you read it and report an exception.
