Eurofins Genomics is a competence centre for genetic analyses of the Eurofins Scientific Group. The company has evolved into a reliable outsourcing partner for the biopharmaceutical industry and academic institutions for high-fidelity DNA sequencing and molecular biological techniques.

Eurofins Genomics has expanded to offer regulatory-compliant genomic services for pharmacogenomics / pharmacogenetics and biological safety testing. It is certified according to ISO:9001 and ISO:17025, and audited by pharmaceutical clients for GxP.

Comprehensive genetic analysis services

Eurofins Genomics has extensive experience in the application of different methods and techniques in the field of genetic analysis, which are crucial for the entire drug development and production process, starting from the preclinical phase through all clinical trials (phases I, II and III), to quality control for production of biologicals.

Eurofins Medigenomix offers a comprehensive range of services for analysis, research and development of genomes.

Eurofins Medigenomix is part of the Eurofins Scientific Group. It is a centre of competence for genetic analyses.

Eurofins Medigenomix stocks a range of sequencing systems, including the HiSeq 2000 that allows individual labs to process numerous samples and analyses complex genomes.

Eurofins Genomics offers a broad spectrum of services in the areas of analysis, research and development. We offer services for single samples, as well as for batches of a few to several thousand samples on high-throughput level. With our services, we help you develop agents and drugs more efficiently and economically, to use them optimally and precisely, and help avoid possible adverse effects. We also ensure the safety of the compounds through quality control during production.

All projects are discussed before providing a quotation to ensure a clear and precise understanding of your needs and requirements. Each project is planned thoroughly, with interim milestones scheduled, to ensure the highest probability for success.
