Moredun Scientific is the commercial arm of the Moredun Foundation, a registered charity that exists to promote the highest possible standards for animal health and welfare through research and education. The Foundation supports a broad and varied range of research initiatives within the Moredun Research Institute. Any profit generated by Moredun Scientific, not retained for re-investment, is transferred on an annual basis to the Moredun Foundation, which in turn uses the funds to help support research programmes.

Contract research services to the Animal Health industry have traditionally constituted our main business, concentrating mainly on efficacy and safety studies in livestock. All work is completed to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) or Veterinary Good Clinical Practice (VICH-GCP).

We have completed over 300 studies for the animal health industry and count many of the top 20 global animal health companies amongst our clients.

In 2008 we successfully launched our Biosafety Testing business supporting the biopharmaceutical industry through the provision of high quality testing services to GLP or Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in accordance with international regulatory requirements.
