Small enough to care and big enough to deliver

LAUS supports you in conducting the environmental risk assessment (ERA) for the registration of your veterinary medicinal product in accordance with the requirements of the European Medicines Agency (EMEA). The test consists of two phases. Phase 2 is, however, only required if certain criteria can not be met in Phase 1.

When is an Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA) required?

  • New applications
  • Generic products
  • Hybrid applications
  • Bibliographic applications
  • Informed consent applications
  • Type II variations
  • Extensions
  • Renewals

All ERA should follow the phased, step-wise approach detailed in the guidelines as issued by VICH (Veterinary International Conference on Harmonization) and adopted by CVMP (Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use). Together with our partner laboratories, we offer you the complete range of tests according to the principles of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) with the following services:
