# IDEXX Laboratories

> IDEXX Laboratories is a Westbrook, Maine-based company founded in 1983 that is the global leader in pet and livestock diagnostic testing, food and water safety testing, and veterinary information management. In veterinary research and academic settings, IDEXX's Catalyst and Procyte Dx benchtop analyzers enable complete blood count and serum chemistry panels from small sample volumes, essential for companion animal research studies, toxicology studies using laboratory animals, and wildlife health monitoring. Their SNAP point-of-care test kits enable rapid in-practice detection of heartworm antigens, tick-borne disease antibodies, feline leukemia virus, and other pathogens, and the underlying lateral flow immunoassay technology developed for veterinary applications has translated into principles used in human rapid diagnostics research. IDEXX's reference laboratory network processes millions of samples annually, generating large-scale epidemiological datasets used by veterinary researchers and public health scientists studying zoonotic disease dynamics, antimicrobial resistance in animal reservoirs, and One Health endpoints. Their IDEXX BioAnalytics division specializes in biomarker development and validation services for preclinical pharmaceutical research using rat, mouse, and nonhuman primate samples, supporting academic pharmacologists and toxicologists who need regulatory-quality biomarker data. IDEXX water testing technologies, including the Colilert and Quanti-Tray systems for Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria enumeration in drinking and recreational water, are EPA-approved methods used in environmental microbiology research.
