Our Quality & Ethics

Continuous improvement & traceability

Thanks to the implementation of an integrated management system and a dynamic step of certification, Atlantic Bone Screen puts all its efforts to respect every regulation requested by its activities. Voluntary and non-mandatory certifications have also been introduced to ensure even better quality of service.

Traceability and training of employees are daily integrated into the management of the studies and the human resources.

All our studies are carried out according to a personalized protocol validated with you before its implementation.

Ethical management at the heart of our protocols

We strictly adhere to the 3R’s principles (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement) in animal research, ensuring minimal animal use while maximising scientific outcomes, and follow the directive 2010/63/EU of the European Parliament.

All of our project involving animal experiments are approved by regional ethics committee, and by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research. The number of animals per group is determined for each project on the basis of the readouts evaluated, the type of tested compound and the in vivo model, which makes it possible to achieve a high level of statistical relevance while minimising the use of animals and respecting their welfare.

No more sentinel animals are used but straight controls of filters, at least twice a year, are performed by an external accredited company.

ISO 9001:2015

Atlantic Bone Screen is ISO 9001 certified since 2009. All along the years, we have been auditing our processes and documentation putting our efforts in implementing continuous improvement philisophy for our Team and for our Sponsors. Traceability is also one of our gold focus: traceability of the data, traceability of the samples, traceability of the animals... 

Also risks evaluation in included on each of our internal process and is much appreciated by our Sponsors.
