QuidelOrtho Corp

QuidelOrtho Corporation is dedicated to the creation and manufacturing of diagnostic testing technologies that address the full range of healthcare testing demands. The company operates through distinct business units: Laboratories, Transfusion Medicine, Point-of-Care, and Molecular Diagnostics. The Laboratories segment provides instruments and assays for clinical chemistry, which measure specific chemical markers in bodily fluids to aid in health evaluation and patient management.

Furthermore, this unit develops testing solutions for monitoring disease progression across various therapeutic fields, along with specialized diagnostic tools. The Transfusion Medicine segment supplies immunohematology instruments and tests vital for blood typing, ensuring compatibility between patients and donors during transfusions, as well as donor screening instruments and tests for detecting infectious diseases in blood and plasma. The Point-of-Care business unit focuses on delivering rapid diagnostic tests suitable for diverse immediate care settings. Finally, the Molecular Diagnostics unit offers polymerase chain reaction (PCR) thermocyclers, alongside analyzers and amplification systems. QuidelOrtho distributes its products directly to end-users via its dedicated sales team and through a network of distributors. These offerings are employed professionally in a wide array of environments, including physician practices, hospitals, clinical and reference laboratories, urgent care centers, universities, retail clinics, pharmacies, wellness screening facilities, blood banks, and donor centers.
