Overview
Tepnel Pharma Services Limited is a private limited company registered in the Scotland (registered number SC635641.
History
The business was formed in 1972 as a part of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain with the remit of teaching Pharmacists basic chemistry and microbiological analysis of medicines. During the 1990's the business served as one of the UK's Medicine Control Laboratories working on behalf of the then Medicines Control Agency as a part of the Medicines Testing Scheme whilst providing outsourced quality control testing in the areas of analytical chemistry and pharmaceutical microbiology.
In 2001, the business was acquired by Tepnel Life Sciences PLC and merged with the Scotlabs Bioanalytical business in Glasgow to create Tepnel Scientific Services Ltd. The two discrete business units were relocated to the current location in 2007 and in 2008 the business was further expanded through the acquisition of Wildlife DNA Services Ltd, to add molecular genetic testing services. The business was further acquired by Gen-Probe Incorporated in 2009, as a part of a larger transaction. In 2012, Gen-Probe Incorporated merged with Hologic Incorporated to form the diagnostics division of Hologic Inc., from which the business traded as Tepnel Pharma Services, the contract pharma services brand of Hologic Ltd.
In 2020, a management buy-out was concluded which saw the brand returned to the ownership of the local leadership team with a vision of creating an employee owned company based and owned in Scotland with a focus on value added quality control testing of proprietary medicines that supports drug development and improves patient outcomes.
