It also offers a comprehensive array of support services to help clients effectively utilize these models in their research and for the screening of potential non-clinical drug candidates. These include providing genetically engineered models, insourcing solutions for facility management, and diagnostic services for research animals. 2.

The ultimate goal is to prepare promising non-clinical drug and therapeutic candidates for subsequent safety evaluations. Additionally, this segment provides an extensive range of safety assessment services, such as toxicology, pathology, safety pharmacology, bioanalysis, drug metabolism studies, and pharmacokinetics. 3. Manufacturing Solutions: This segment addresses critical quality control requirements by offering in vitro methods for both routine and rapid testing of the quality of sterile and non-sterile pharmaceuticals, as well as consumer products. It also serves as a vital provider of specialized biologics testing, which is often outsourced by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Furthermore, the segment supplies avian vaccine services, including specific-pathogen-free (SPF) fertile chicken eggs, SPF chickens, and diagnostic products, all essential for vaccine production. Beyond these specialized segments, Charles River also manages contract vivarium operations, providing crucial animal housing and care facilities for its biopharmaceutical clients.
