OPTAS LTD is a Contract Analytical Laboratory and Consultancy Company that has arisen out of the closure of Research & Development Laboratories within Johnson & Johnson at Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics Ltd.

The company began operating around August 2000 as an independant Laboratory but was previously active within Johnson and Johnson for over a decade and became recognised as one of the leading laboratories within the Johnson & Johnson worldwide group of companies.

Over the years it has specialised in developing new analytical techniques and methods to enhance understanding of processes, surfaces and materials in a wide area of applications both within R & D and Manufacturing. These include, raw material issues, pharmaceutical analysis, biomaterial analysis, biomedical devices, protein adsorption, surface treatment, surface analysis, polymer moulding, plasma modification, cleaning and sanitisation, cross contamination, trouble shooting on manufacturing lines and QC failures, to name just a few.

Within Johnson & Johnson we built our reputation on the quality of our analytical service, both in expertise and enthusiasm to solve problems and make new discoveries, as well as the rapid response of a dedicated team. Now, as an independent company, OPTAS LTD is able to provide the same level of service and expertise to Industry in general. Please browse through the site to see the scope of what is offered and do not hesitate to contact us if you feel we could be of help to you.

OPTAS LTD achieved the BS EN ISO 9001 2000 standard in June 2001, and, in addition, is registered at the Home Office for analysis of controlled drugs.
