Class 1 medical FDA registration process consulting TCT third-party testing agency, FDA is a law enforcement agency, not a service agency. If someone says that they are accredited laboratories under the FDA, then he is at least misleading consumers, because the FDA has neither public-facing service certification agencies and laboratories, nor so-called “designated laboratories.” The FDA, as a federal law enforcement agency, cannot engage in such things as both a referee and an athlete. The FDA will only recognize the GMP quality of service testing laboratories, and issue certificates of conformity if they are qualified, but will not “designate” or recommend a specific one or several to the public.
