Implementation of Good Clinical Laboratory Practice in an Immunology Basic Research LaboratoryThe KEMRI-Wellcome Trust Research Laboratories Experience

Objectives Good Clinical Laboratory Practice (GCLP) is a standard that ensures quality and reliability of research data by adopting the principles of Good Laboratory Practice and Good Clinical Practice. Even though implementing a quality system in a basic research laboratory is still a contentious issue, it ensures that the research data are accurate, valid, and reliable. GCLP implementation requires proper documented procedures and safety precautions to achieve this objective.
