We are proud of the discoveries and advancements our specialists have made in myriad sectors, ranging from food to pharma to forensics testing.

Our laboratories around the world are helping to improve cancer treatments, catch criminals, safeguard the health of bees, ensure our food and water is safe, determine paternity, and beat viruses like COVID-19. Underpinning our work in these areas and more, Eurofins has one of the world’s largest and most varied databases, rich with fingerprints of thousands upon thousands of foodstuffs and drugs.

With over 950 laboratories in over 1,000 independent companies across 57 countries, there are countless examples where our activities and our scientists’ great work since 1987 was decisive in pushing the frontiers of Testing for Life. You can find below a short description of some of our innovations.
