6423161 - Research and experimental developmental services in biological sciences

Research and experimental developmental services in disciplines concerned with understanding, exploring or developing the natural world such as biological sciences. Research services consist of systematic investigation carried by means of experiment or analysis to achieve a scientific or technological advance such as acquiring new knowledge of the underlying foundation of phenomena and observable facts. Experimental development services consist of new or substantially improved goods, services, systems, methods or processes.
