Amlan

Amlan International is the animal health business of Oil-Dri® Corporation of America, a leader in sorbent mineral technology. Amlan leverages Oil-Dri`s 80-plus years of mineral science expertise to develop proprietary, mineral-based feed additives that support optimal intestinal health while adding value for animal protein producers. The core of our feed additives is our natural mineral ingredient that contains high-capacity opal-CT lepispheres and undergoes proprietary thermal processing specifically tailored for each product. We also create synergistic blends of our mineral with other feed ingredients that further support normal gut function and digestive processes. Oil-Dri and the single-source mineral used in Amlan products are based in the USA, and because Amlan and Oil-Dri are vertically integrated, we control the quality, reliability, and safety of the mineral — from mine to feed bag. We do this by following sustainable mining practices and through the use of natural ingredients in our products. Our mineral-based feed additives meet the demands for cleaner food while reducing the inputs needed to raise production animals, helping to decrease the cost and environmental impact of poultry and livestock production. Leading integrators and producers worldwide trust our products to support animal intestinal health and add value to their operations. You can, too.

Advanced Cell Diagnostics

Advanced Cell Diagnostics, Inc. (ACD) is a leader in the emerging field of molecular pathology, developing cell- and tissue-based diagnostic tests for personalized medicine. Based in the heart of Silicon Valley, ACD was founded and managed by experienced entrepreneurs in the life science industry. ACD’s products and services are based on its proprietary RNAscope® Technology, the first multiplex fluorescent and chromogenic in situ hybridization platform capable of detecting and quantifying RNA biomarkers in situ at single molecule sensitivity. In addition to its ongoing efforts to develop proprietary diagnostic tests for cancer management, ACD also establishes partnerships with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to validate biomarkers for targeted therapeutic development. These internal and external efforts will continue to position ACD as a leader in molecular diagnostics and companion diagnostics. The company’s technology overcomes critical hurdles in the identification and validation of biomarkers for companion diagnostics. ACD’s RNAscope® platform provides a new way of localizing and measuring RNA in situ with exceptional levels of sensitivity, specificity, and the ability to multiplex. Turnaround time for a new assay is reduced to three weeks. These advantages make the technology a powerful tool to address the issue of patient and disease heterogeneity, thus shortening the path to personalized medicine.
