Profile: Beckman Coulter, Inc. is a manufacturer of biomedical testing instrument systems, tests & supplies that simplify and automate laboratory processes. Spanning the biomedical testing continuum from medical research & clinical trials to laboratory diagnostics and point-of-care testing, we provide essential biomedical information. GenomeLab is a family of solutions that identifies & removes the bottlenecks in the study of genetics, with the ultimate goal of identifying disease targets for therapy. We also render in vitro diagnostics systems to hospital laboratories. Our Hemoccult® ICT is the latest and most advanced fecal occult blood test (FOBT) in our Hemoccult product line. An immunochemical FOBT (iFOBT) with high specificity and sensitivity, Hemoccult ICT is clinically proven to detect bleeding associated with more cancers & polyps than traditional guaiac-based FOBTs. Because of its superior specificity for lower GI bleeding, Hemoccult ICT is an ideal screening tool for colorectal cancer (CRC), and this specificity also reduces the number of false positive test results.
The company was founded in 1934, has revenues of > USD 1 Billion, has ~10100 employees and is ISO 9000, ISO 9001, ISO 9002, CE certified.
