As an added assurance to the company, the author has undertaken to maintain this blog as a “clean” source of information i.e. with no mention of the company’s name.

Commitment to the company’s research and development
… and, to conclude, here is a statement from the founder and chairman of the company …

“I want you to be aware of the very serious commitment we have to research and development.

I believe that we have tremendously qualified scientists and researchers working for ‘the company’.

Research and Development is divided into product support, quality control, microbiology, analytical chemistry, laboratory services, regulatory compliance, technical services, and product development."
