Eurofins Scientific has announced the acquisition of Nab Labs Group, one of the largest independent environment testing laboratories in Finland.
Eurofins Scientific (Luxembourg) has announced the acquisition of Nab Labs Group (Jyväskylä, Finland), one of the largest independent environment testing laboratories in Finland.
Providing a comprehensive range of environmental research and testing services across Finland, Nab Labs has a strong record working with industrial process analytics and forestry sectors.
Reportedly generating annual revenues in excess of €9 million, the acquisition of Nab Labs further consolidates Eurofins position in the environmental testing market of Finland, following the recent acquisitions of Ramboll Labs and Ahma.
“The acquisition of Nab Labs is another illustration of Eurofins’ commitment to consolidating the Group’s leading footprint in the markets where it operates,” said Gilles Martin, Eurofins CEO.
“Together with the recently acquired Ahma and Ramboll networks of laboratories in the country, we look forward to supporting these laboratories’ respective operations and further developing their capabilities to continue providing customers in Finland with the highest level of analytical service,” said Martin.

Inside the Laboratory: The Gionfriddo Group at the University at Buffalo
March 28th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Emanuela Gionfriddo, PhD, an associate professor of chemistry at the University at Buffalo, discusses her group’s current research endeavors, including using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to liquid chromatography (LC) and gas chromatography (GC) to further understand the chemical relationship between environmental exposure and disease and elucidate micropollutants fate in the environment and biological systems.
Transferring Methods to Compact and Portable HPLC
February 14th 2024The current trend in laboratory equipment design is the miniaturization of laboratory instruments. Smaller-scale HPLC instruments offer benefits that cannot be matched by analytical-scale equipment, especially in the areas of portability, reduced fluid volumes, and reduced operating costs. Yet, the miniaturization of laboratory equipment has brought with it a unique set of challenges, including transferring methods to compact LC. Capillary LC expands the use of LC to applications not currently done using conventional LC in a wide array of application areas, including pharmaceutical, food and beverage, petrochemical, environmental, and oil and gas. Greg Ward, Axcend’s CEO wrote, “Customers want an HPLC system with a small footprint, low flow rates and green chemistry.” Join his podcast where he shares method transfer in these application areas.
