Southern RNA
Services / ANALYTICAL SERVICES

From Testing to
Product Release

Southern RNA provides comprehensive analytical services for nucleic acid products, supported by an experienced team of scientists and a robust analytical platform. We deliver precise testing and characterisation for plasmid DNA, mRNA, cap analogs, and related materials, alongside method development, validation, and stability study support. With advanced analytical instrumentation and GMP-aligned processes, we help ensure product quality, regulatory readiness, and reliable data throughout development.
PROBLEMS WE SOLVE

From Analysis to Actionable Data

Limited Analytical Expertise for Nucleic Acids

Many programmes lack specialised expertise for analysing complex nucleic acid products. Our experienced scientists provide tailored analytical strategies and validated methods to ensure accurate and reliable results.

Inconsistent or Incomplete Product Characterisation

Without comprehensive testing, product quality and performance can be difficult to confirm. We provide detailed analysis of plasmid DNA, mRNA, and related components to ensure consistency and integrity.

Challenges in Method Development & Validation

Developing and validating analytical assays can delay programme timelines. Our team supports method development, qualification, validation, and verification to establish reliable testing workflows.

Regulatory & Stability Study Requirements

Meeting regulatory expectations requires structured stability studies and documented analytical processes. We support the design and execution of stability studies to ensure compliance and long-term product quality.

SERVICE & SCOPE

Flexible Services Aligned to Your Program Stage

Our analytical platform supports nucleic acid products at every stage, from early characterisation through release and stability testing. We tailor testing strategies to your programme’s phase and regulatory needs, providing consistent, well- documented data that de-risks progression.

Compliance Is Not An Afterthought, It Is Foundational

Quality is central to Southern RNA. Our Quality Management System supports GMP operations and early-phase clinical manufacturing. From raw material qualification to final product release, every step follows documented procedures and risk assessments to ensure consistency and patient safety.

Compliance is embedded in our workflows, not just a final checkpoint. We maintain documentation systems, change management processes, and analytical verification to support regulatory submissions. By aligning quality oversight with execution, we help clients progress confidently from research to clinical supply.
