The company operates commercial genomics service laboratories and distributes a broad portfolio of life science consumables, instruments, reagents, and diagnostic products to academic, research, clinical, veterinary, agricultural, and industrial customers. Its service offerings include Sanger sequencing, next-generation sequencing, oligo synthesis, qPCR analysis, fragment analysis, MassARRAY genotyping, and animal genetics testing.
