Pronova BioPharma ASA announced that the Danish Medicines Agency (Lægemiddelstyrelsen) has recently inspected new manufacturing facility in Kalundborg, Denmark and granted the company a GMP (good manufacturing practice) certificate.

The GMP certificate from the Danish Medicines Agency verifies compliance with the GMP guidelines.
