AIGLE, Switzerland – 6 August, 2026 – National Standards Laboratory SA (NSL SA), the Swiss laboratory in Aigle, Canton of Vaud, announced today that it has completed registration with the United Nations Global Marketplace (UNGM) and the United Nations Partner Portal (UNPP), creating additional channels for international scientific co-operation and technical engagement.
NSL SA operates within an ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory framework, focusing on technical competence, analytical reliability, controlled methodologies, traceable records and confidence in testing and research results. The laboratory combines advanced inspection, measurement, analytical and preclinical research capabilities with validated methods, calibration management, qualified personnel, data-integrity procedures and scientific quality controls.
A major focus of NSL SA’s long-term research agenda is the study of longevity science and healthy ageing. The laboratory investigates biological mechanisms related to ageing, cellular resilience, metabolism, inflammation, tissue maintenance and age-associated functional decline. Through responsible preclinical research, including scientifically designed animal studies where appropriate, NSL SA seeks to generate reliable evidence supporting future advances in human health research.
The laboratory emphasises that meaningful scientific progress requires rigorous methodology, ethical oversight and transparent interpretation of results. Research activities are designed around scientifically justified objectives, appropriate review processes, responsible sample management and the principle of reducing unnecessary experimental impact. Positive, negative and inconclusive findings are regarded as valuable contributions to scientific understanding.
NSL SA’s scientific interests include emerging approaches such as biomarker validation, multi-omics analysis, metabolic and mitochondrial research, biological ageing models, regenerative mechanisms and evidence-based strategies supporting a healthy lifespan. The laboratory aims to develop research outputs capable of independent evaluation, peer review and broader scientific application.
As part of its wider scientific vision, NSL SA is also exploring responsible open-access approaches for selected intellectual property and technical knowledge that may contribute to advances in the life sciences. Where appropriate and legally permitted, certain research resources may be shared to support qualified scientific communities and encourage wider collaboration.
Through its laboratory infrastructure, scientific expertise and international co-operation framework, NSL SA aims to contribute to the development of reliable life-science knowledge and support collaboration among researchers, universities, laboratories and responsible innovation partners worldwide.
