Kodak adds four regulated pharma products for labs
Key Terms
cdmos
technical
Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs) are independent companies that help drug and biologic developers by designing, testing, scaling up and producing medicines on a contract basis — think of them as a hired factory and research partner that turns a medical idea into a manufacturable product. They matter to investors because they provide steady, service-based revenue, spread development and production risk for drug makers, and their capacity, quality and pricing can directly affect the speed and cost of getting medicines to market.
cGMP-compliant
regulatory
cGMP-compliant means a manufacturer follows the current Good Manufacturing Practices required by regulators to ensure products are made safely, consistently and with documented quality controls. For investors, cGMP compliance is like a certified clean kitchen and recipe book for a company’s manufacturing: it reduces the risk of product contamination, regulatory sanctions or recalls, supports reliable supply and can be essential for getting and keeping market approvals.
iso 13485
regulatory
ISO 13485 is an international quality management standard for organizations that design, produce, or service medical devices. Think of it as a factory’s rulebook and checklist that helps ensure products are safe, consistently made, and meet regulatory rules worldwide. For investors, certification signals lower operational and regulatory risk, easier market access, and greater reliability of a company’s medical products and supply chain — similar to buying from a trusted, inspected supplier.
