Team & company

What we do?

Anabiotec is a contract research organization, specialized in analytical services for the  biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry. We offer analytical testing for all phases of the drug development process. We project manage your analytical program and advise you about all critical issues, decisions to make and the next steps to take.

Who we are?

Anabiotec was founded in 1999 by entrepreneur Griet Nuytinck, who is still active as CEO. Our strategy is one of moderate but continuous organic growth.  As a family-owned company, we are financially stable. We are not susceptible to volatile trade quotations and can determine our own course.

Anabiotec was established in a stately town house. In 2009, we moved to the Ghent Incubation and Innovation Center, as Ghent is the heart of the Belgian biotech sector. We are happy to be here! In the last several years, the biotech industry has been moving towards outsourcing - and it is looking for reliable analytical services laboratories.
We have grown from 18 employees in 2009 to 45 employees in 2012. Once again we are contending with lack of space. But not for long!
We are building a splendid new laboratory in the north of Ghent, where we will create a laboratory of the future for healthcare analytics and diagnostics. We are planning to move in by the end of 2013. Follow our construction works!

Anabiotec has the force of youth! Our team's average age is about 34. But we all have one thing in common: we are eager to learn and to deliver! We are heavily investing in scientific training, knowledge sharing, creative scenario thinking and innovation. We nurture everyone's skills through our leadership and coaching. And that is exactly what you can expect: an enthusiastic team that you can rely on to get the job done!

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest. -Benjamin Franklin

What we’re good at?

Every employee is acutely aware of quality - this is an Anabiotec mindset. We are a GMP laboratory, compliant since 2003. Since then, we have been successfully GMP audited (based on the ISO 17025 standard) every two year by the Belgian authorities. (Download our GMP compliance certificate and the Belgian State recognition here.)

In 2009 we were audited by the FDA and recognized as a Contract Pharmaceutical Quality Control Lab (FEI-nr 3003990527). Depending on the phase of drug development concerned, we can limit or extend the test requirements to achieve the right balance between good documentation practices and risk based decision making.

We strive to provide a high added value service to our customers. Depending on the customer and the drug development phase, this can be done by offering an urgent release, a tailor-made forced degradation protocol, project management of your entire analytical testing program (including preparation for filing, formulation advice, or consultancy about peptide aggregation), or can we shorten the throughput time of your process by entering the raw data in your LIMS system. Simply tell us where you need help.
 

Try not to become a man of success but a man of value. - Albert Einstein
