MediZap Announces Partnership with ALG | Element as Microbiology Lab for Sterile Compounding Testing
The partnership integrates sterile compounding testing into MediZap's Four Pillar Service to meet the ever-tightening USP <797> guidelines for sterile compounding assurance.
SAN DIEGO, CA - MediZap, North America’s leading turn-key service provider of e-beam terminal sterilization for compounded pharmaceuticals announces an exciting partnership with Analytical Lab Group, now part of Element Materials Technology (Element), to offer sterile compounding testing services, analytical chemistry, and more to its pharmaceutical compounding clients.
The partnership adds another layer of value to the MediZap Program by expanding its services to include USP <797>, USP <800>, and cGMP FDA compliance expertise and testing solutions for compounded pharmaceuticals.
The partnership is a direct integration with MediZap's Four Pillar Service, with ALG | Element now offering services in the areas of research and development testing, safety and compliance testing, stability testing, container closure testing, and quality assurance testing.
MediZap clients can expect these primary benefits, and more, from this exclusive partnership with ALG | Element:
- Peel Off Sample Submission - Samples are taken from the terminal sterilization run for compendial quality control testing. Samples are pulled post-sterilization and immediately sent to the ALG | Element microbiology lab for testing, saving the client significant time and money.
- Q-Alerts - When a client has a quality event that potentially affects drug safety or stability, the joint team effort between MediZap, ALG | Element, and the client immediately launches a quality investigation and quickly and effectively identifies the single root cause in a unified manner.
- Advanced Technology for Testing Services – ALG | Element sterile compounding testing services includes Rapid Sterility USP <1223> BacT | ALERT®, Sterility USP <71>, Endotoxin USP <85>, Bioburden USP <61>, and USP <62> to help clients keep their projects on schedule, reduce product waste, validate the efficacy and purity of products, and get their products to market faster.

It is a GLP | cGMP compliant, FDA registered, DEA registered, and ISO | IEC 17025:2017 accredited company dedicated to pharmaceutical testing solutions.
"The partnership with ALG | Element further supports MediZap's commitment to helping innovative 503A and 503B compounding pharmacies, small pharmaceutical companies, and schools of pharmacy meet the ever-tightening USP <797> guidelines for sterile compounding assurance regulated by the State Boards of Pharmacy and FDA. It allows us to offer clients a full spectrum of small lot testing and sterilization services to overcome historic sterilization validation methodologies and keep their projects on track and get their products to market faster. We are excited to integrate ALG | Element's services into our own Four Pillar Service that has made MediZap a leader in the terminal sterilization industry," said Jonathan Bergstrom, CEO of MediZap.
