Diagnostic Chemicals

Diagnostic Chemicals Limited (DCL) was a prominent developer and manufacturer of diagnostic enzymes, clinical chemistry reagents, and specialty chemicals for the global healthcare and life sciences markets. Founded in 1970 and headquartered in Prince Edward Island, Canada, the company specialized in high-purity biochemicals and custom manufacturing services for diagnostic kit manufacturers. DCL's product portfolio included a wide range of assays for clinical chemistry, immunology, and molecular biology. The company was acquired by Genzyme Corporation in 2007 to strengthen its diagnostics business, and its operations were later integrated into Sekisui Diagnostics following Genzyme's divestiture of its diagnostics division.
