THEIR HISTORY
bioMérieux is a family-owned company created in 1963. Its expertise and its commitment to expand the frontiers of knowledge in biology are grounded in an entrepreneurial adventure that has been ongoing for more than one century.
bioMérieux is first and foremost a human and scientific adventure that began more than 55 years ago, yet its roots reach back to the tradition of Louis Pasteur and the fight against infectious diseases. In 1897, Marcel Mérieux, who had studied with Pasteur, founded a laboratory in Lyon where he developed the first anti-tetanus sera.
