Quotient Bioresearch Ltd. (Fordham, UK) and Clinical Reference Laboratory Global Services (CRL; Lenexa, KS, USA) have concluded an agreement that will result in joint clinical laboratory and other specialist testing services.

CRL Global Services will set up its European clinical reference laboratory operation within Quotient's state-of-the-art facility in Cambridgeshire, UK, establishing it as the European focus for its central laboratory services unit. This will complement Quotient's existing clinical laboratory services, particularly in the area of bioanalysis and biomarkers.

The services of the two organizations are entirely complementary, creating considerable benefits for clients from the combined offering of the two groups. Paul Cowan, CEO of Quotient Bioresearch commented: "This collaboration brings exciting new opportunities for our bioanalytical sciences and microbiology businesses. Working in tandem with CRL offers access to a well established, standardized global laboratory infrastructure and the ability to serve the requirements of our clients for global clinical trials.”
