All vectors produced by the VDL are manufactured in compliance with Good Laboratory Practices. Our commitment to GLP regulations makes all of our vectors suitable to pre-clinical studies. There are many features that constitute compliance with GLP including establishing and strictly following Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the production of all vectors. Below you will find links to all SOPs followed by the VDL. Feel free to check out our SOPs and contact us if you have questions.
