Eurofins ADME BIOANALYSES is a Contract Research Organisation providing diverse services to the pharmaceutical industry in the fields of pharmacokinetics and drug metabolism.
Based at our site in the heart of Southern France we have over 2500m2 of laboratory and office space with a team of 100 FTE.
We have four business units which, working cooperatively between each other and in partnership with other Eurofins entities, can offer the full range of pre-clinical and clinical DMPK services.
Through regular, ongoing investments in equipment and staff training we target the optimisation of our client's registration timelines in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic or nutrition industries.
Eurofins ADME BIOANALYSES was founded originally as ADME BIOANALYSES in 1987 in Sophia Antipolis (near Nice) in France by Dr. Patrick Duchêne.
In 1999, the Company moved to new facilities in Vergèze, between Montpellier and Nîmes in France.
In 2005, the Company joined the Eurofins Scientific Group to expand its technological and geographical reach. This new organisation allowed the Company to strengthen its market position and to accelerate its development to provide ever increasing quality and range of technical services.
In 2013 and 2017, the Company increased its capacities with two consecutive extensions at the Vergèze site.
In 2018, following the retirement of the company founder, Dr. Tanja Schubert became the company CEO.
Eurofins ADME BIOANALYSES’ primary objective is to keep increasing its capacities and range of service offerings whilst remaining a gold standard partner for its clients.
It is in the early stages of development that reliable information is required with a quick response time and at a competitive price.
Eurofins ADME Bioanalyses offers a range of services in-house to aid in the decision making process from first “in-life” studies to compare products and formulations to in-vivo and in-vitro metabolism studies.
We have the capacity to manage studies on large, molecules, small molecules and ADC with all conventional and novel delivery systems.

Aiming to involve the staff in reducing waste and for better management of resources.
A combination of external partners and internal actions provide the opportunity to reduce, reuse and recycle. Diverse initiatives have already been put into place - paper shredders provided by a recycling company, fresh fruit and veg boxes supplied to participating staff every 2 weeks, better communication of the risks and benefits of being eco-responsible, encouraging good habits etc.
The aim is to promote the company values of engagement, sensitivity, and partnering to promote an intelligent consumption of resources. The group has the objective of introducing a rolling cycle of new ideas and staff-led initiatives in the months and years to come.
Environmental issues now occupy a major place in the collective consciousness of our societies with regard to the phenomena affecting our planet and their consequences for humanity: climate change, erosion of biodiversity, depletion of natural resources, degradation of natural environments, etc.
Faced with this situation, we all need to act, individually and collectively, to change our lifestyles and behaviour towards a more sustainable development model: "meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs" (Brundtland Report, 1987).
Aware that its activities have an impact on the environment, Eurofins ADME BIOANALYSES, operating in the field of health, must have a sustainable development policy that simultaneously reconciles economic growth, social equity and environmental protection.
This approach is now at the heart of its priorities and its growth strategy and is a guarantee of progress and shared growth, beneficial not only to the company, its employees, partners and suppliers but also to society in general.
Within this framework, a Charter has been drawn up which sets out the provisions and commitments made by the company to act in a sustainable and responsible manner on a daily basis in the deployment of its activities.
This Charter is based on three interdependent components: environmental, social and economic.
New initiatives will regularly be added to this Charter.
