DDC Expands Operations

DNA Model
DNA Diagnostics Center keeps growing their operations in the United States.  The Fairfield based company is one of the largest DNA testing facilities in the world and is even bigger today.

Just recently on Monday the company announced it will be expanding its government contract bussiness by acquiring the Dayton, Ohio operations and the fifty employees of Orchid Cellmark Inc.

DNA Diagnostics does testing for parenthood, ancestry and other relationship by private individuals, lawyers, law enforcement officers and immigration officials, and others.  Each year they perform thousands of DNA tests.

DNA Diagnostics has become popular in celebrity circles.  Testing in 2007 by DNA Diagnostics was performed for the late model Anne Nicole Smith and her 6 year old daughter in a cause involving Larry Birkhead.  The company is also featured on popular shows such as the Maury Povich Show and Dateline NBC.

Orchid's labs in Dayton, Ohio will continue to do business as usual.  The labs will eventually be consolidated at DNA Diagnostics's Fairfield facility.
