Labstat has invested in the technologies required
to produce reliable, accurate and defensible data within practical
timelines. Further, we have invested in throughput capacity to
respond to the increased demand for tobacco-related analyses and
continuity of service in the case of equipment breakdown.
Labstat operates 24 smoking machines. Labstat
can accommodate a wide spectrum of smoking regimes including,
ISO, Massachusetts, Canadian Intense and others as defined by
clients.
All smoking machines operate within our
controlled environment rooms under either ISO or FTC conditions.
