Beckman Coulter (Fullerton, CA, USA) has formed Beckman Coulter Genomics (Beverly, MA, USA), combining the operations of its Agencourt Bioscience business with Cogenics, a firm it recently purchased.

Beckman Coulter Genomics will offer scientists genomic service resources with expanded global capabilities. It will provide a variety of services including sequencing, sample preparation, genotyping, gene expression, biologic efficiency and safety testing, as well as support for regulatory compliance including Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA).
