CRO Services
Contract research, delivered with scientific rigour and commercial speed.
Manna Biotech's CRO division partners with pharma, nutraceutical, biotech, and startup clients to accelerate research programs — from discovery and molecular characterisation through to diagnostic method development and NGS-based analytics. We run projects under clear SOPs with full data transparency.
What's included
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Discovery & early research
Target identification, proof-of-concept assays, literature due diligence, and feasibility studies.
Molecular diagnostics
PCR and qPCR assay design, optimisation, and validation for clinical research and industry applications.
Genomics & sequencing
Oxford Nanopore and Illumina-based sequencing programs for research and R&D applications.
Microbial & probiotic characterisation
16S / whole-genome profiling of probiotic strains, contamination profiling, and community analysis.
Nutraceutical & plant science
Plant DNA barcoding, adulteration detection, and molecular authentication for the herbal and nutraceutical sector.
Custom study design
End-to-end protocol design with defined endpoints, timelines, and deliverables agreed before kick-off.
Program options
Multiple tracks. One tailored plan for you.
CRO engagements are scoped under project-specific proposals. NDA available on request before any detailed discussion. All client data and IP remain exclusively with the client.
Discovery engagement
Short scoped studies — proof of concept, feasibility, or due diligence.
Method development
Assay or pipeline development with validation and transfer documentation.
Multi-phase program
Long-running CRO partnerships under a master services agreement (MSA).
Fee Structure
CRO engagements — scoped, budgeted, and delivered under NDA.
Every CRO project is different — a 6-week feasibility study costs nothing like an 18-month multi-phase program. We work with you to define scope, milestones, deliverables, and budget in a scoping document before any commitment. All discussions happen under mutual NDA.
- Mutual NDA signed before any detailed discussion
- Written scope & budget document before project kickoff
- Milestone-based invoicing — no surprises
All client data and IP remain exclusively with the client. We work to industry SOPs and provide full methods documentation with each deliverable. Invoicing supports INR, USD, and EUR.
