As one of the first countries to have a dedicated department for biotechnology, the market for Indian biotechnology companies has been significantly propelling forward. This is backed by the setting up of BIR AC to strengthen and empower emerging Biotechnology enterprises in undertaking strategic research and innovation.
The growth is also driven by the recent policies initiated by the Government of India such as Make in India, Startup India, among others for boosting entrepreneurial development, human resource development and innovative research. However, biotechnology companies are expected to deliver cost-effective products and services with a quick turnaround time to deliver without compromising on quality aspects.
This is where Zelle Biotechnology Pvt. Ltd., founded in October 2004 has been exceeding its customers’ expectations by offering best-in-class products, technologies and services for the players in Indian Biotech and Life Sciences industry. With its strong scientific focus and client driven attitude, Zelle has established itself as one of the most valuable partners within the industry today. They are a DSIR recognized and GLP
compliant laboratory having extensive and varied experience in Upstream and Downstream Development, Analytical Method Development, Bioassays, and Method Transfers.
