# Method transfer in the laboratory

## Would you like to carry out a method transfer to your laboratory?

### What is a method transfer?

In simple terms, method transfer is the process of exporting a method previously developed in an independent laboratory to **your equipment**.

In reality, method transfer is a somewhat more complex process.

The method is first developed on defined equipment before being **optimized** on the same machines. However, not all equipment reacts in exactly the same way depending on the brand, model, etc. Likewise, not all operators handle things in the same way, which can lead to discrepancies in the results.

### Why carry out a method transfer?

Method transfer makes it possible to **export** the method initially developed and **adapt** it to **your laboratory** and its **environment**. In addition, your team is then **trained** by our experts in order to successfully carry out the transferred analysis.

As a result, method transfer allows you to gain **independence**. Indeed, transferred methods can then be carried out directly in **your laboratories** with **your equipment** and **teams**.

As such, the support of a laboratory specialized in method development, validation and transfer is a major asset in carrying out your project.
