Why LVRC
What makes us different
Registered R&D-company status, KNU clinical infrastructure, patented methodology, government R&D track record, and in-house IACUC - five differentiators.
- 01
Registered R&D company
LVRC is an Innopolis-registered R&D company (#2173) under Korea's Special Act on Innopolis. Our registration qualifies us as an official contract testing partner for government-funded R&D programs.
- 02
Embedded inside KNU Vet Hospital
Our headquarters is located inside Room 220 of the Kyungpook National University Veterinary Teaching Hospital - putting Korea's leading veterinary clinical infrastructure into daily use.
- 03
Patented evaluation methodology
We apply a proprietary scoring methodology licensed from the KNU College of Veterinary Medicine. Safety is quantified through hematology and serum chemistry biomarkers; palatability through consumption, time, and approach behavior - yielding objective, reproducible results.
- 04
₩6.66B in government-funded R&D
Cumulative ₩6.66B (~USD 5M) across IPET and KOITA government R&D programs - demonstrating the operational capacity public funding bodies expect.
- 05
IACUC-governed studies
Every study is reviewed in advance by our in-house Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Animal welfare and ethical research are non-negotiable at LVRC.
