Chances are you already know our pioneering history
If you’re an IVD laboratory professional, chances are that our paths have already crossed.
Since our foundation in 1950 in Japan we have acquired a number of best-in-class IVD companies (e.g. Centocor Diagnostics in 1998, CanAg Diagnostics in 2006 and Innogenetics in 2010), bolstering our capacity to conceive, develop, produce and deliver products of the highest quality across the world.
Today, we are part of Miraca Group, a global Japanese healthcare player that favors cross-group R&D synergies and expertise in clinical laboratory testing (SRL), IVD testing solutions (Fujirebio) and other specialized healthcare related activities.
As part of Miraca Group we therefore have the capacity to truly understand patient needs and we collaborate closely with clinicians and laboratorians worldwide to develop innovative IVD testing solutions for today and tomorrow.

25 years of automated CLEIA testing expertise
In 1992, we launched one of the world's first fully automated chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) instruments - the very first LUMIPULSE - in Japan.
Today, we are the second largest immunoassay instrument supplier on the Japanese market.
Building on our long history, we recently opened a new chapter by bringing our state-of-the-art CLEIA instrument to the Asian, European and US markets.
-
World-leading strip-based diagnostics
For decades, we have been pioneering molecular diagnostics and multiparameter immunoassay testing with our INNO-LiPA and INNO-LIA assays.
Today, we are a worldwide market leader in the field of strip-based assays and automation.
