With the increasing TCM market inside and outside of China, the need for TCM testing is drastically changing to match this growth. The market demands TCM testing, especially testing has to be done by a third-party organization in case the first- and second-party laboratory perform divergent results. In EN ISO/ICE 17025, a third-party testing laboratory has to be qualified as independent in that it is free from any undue commercial, financial and other pressures which might influence their technical judgement. Chinese Government, Sate Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and National Development and Reform Commission, launched a project to cultivate third-party platform for TCM testing. National third-party testing platform for TCM (the South) – Genchim Testing is the only platform that obtained this grant so far. Genchim is a full-service TCM testing laboratory, its service covers from physicochemical property analysis, exogenous contamination analysis to biology analysis. It with an area of 5000 m2 now located in Shanghai is applying for accreditation of CNAS and CMA and will obtain the certificate of conformity in the end of this year. Genchim Testing will work continuously towards improving TCM quality through professional testing service and leading TCM Standardization research.
