Who we are

Eurofins Genomics US was founded in 1986 by a lab professor at the University of California at Berkeley. The founders were not motivated by personal financial gain but wanted to support the scientific community, plus they found the new venture to be fun and intellectually stimulating. At that time, purchasing oligonucleotides were cost-prohibitive which severely limited their application in labs. They built a new oligo synthesizer to reduce cost, thereby empowering the scientific community with better, more cost-efficient reagents.

Today, Eurofins Genomics US is a global leader in life science products and services and a trusted partner amongst researchers worldwide. Our main production facilities are strategically located in the logistical hub of North America to ensure the fastest delivery of products and services, and compliant with GMP, GLP, and ISO quality assurance standards. Additional facilities are located in Europe, Japan, and India.

What we do

DNA is the language of life. Eurofins Genomics specializes in reading and writing DNA. Writing DNA involves pairing the letters of life together into a sequence, which is designed for a specific purpose. The synthesized sequence is called an oligonucleotide if single-stranded or a gene if double-stranded. Reading DNA revolves around sequencing, a process of decoding the sequence of a sample. This process results in an electronic readout of the sample's contents.

Over the years, our portfolio of genomics products and services has grown substantially. We pride ourselves in having a customer-orientated approach, fast service, and high quality products.
