The document outlines the fundamental points of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) which include resources, characterization, rules, results, and quality assurance. GLP aims to standardize nonclinical safety studies to ensure reliability and integrity of study data. It requires organizations to have defined structures, qualified personnel, adequate facilities and equipment. Tests must characterize items and systems. Studies must follow approved protocols and standard operating procedures. All raw data, reports, and records must be retained to allow reconstruction of studies. Quality assurance independently monitors compliance.
