Founded in 1981, Neogen Corporation operates through two primary business segments: Food Safety and Animal Safety. The Food Safety division offers diagnostic test kits and complementary products to detect foodborne pathogens, spoilage organisms, natural toxins, food allergens, and drug residues in human food and animal feed. The Animal Safety segment provides veterinary instruments, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, diagnostic products, and rodenticides for livestock and companion animals. In 2022, Neogen significantly expanded its scale and global reach by merging with 3M's Food Safety business. In early 2026, the company announced an agreement to divest its global Genomics business to Zoetis to focus on its core diagnostic and safety operations. The company serves a diverse customer base, including food processors, veterinarians, and livestock producers across more than 140 countries.
