Privately held Mars, Inc. Agrees to Acquire VCA for $7.7 Billion

January 9, 2017

Mars agreed to buy VCA, a company that owns about 800 animal hospitals, a lab business and dog day care franchise. Antech Diagnostics is the laboratory diagnostics division of VCA, a leading national animal healthcare company operating in the US & Canada. Antech Diagnostics has the largest network of veterinary laboratories in the world.

LabThruPut is proud to say that it supplies Antech Diagnostics with the connectivity and middleware products used in Antech laboratories. These products produce significant operational efficiencies, savings and process improvements including superior accuracy, efficiency and precision of reported results. The savings realized from LabThruPut’s technology contributes in a major way to VCA’s profitability year-after-year.

Lab Professionals unfamiliar with Life Sciences who may consider these to be “only” veterinary labs and that the products LabThruPut supplied don’t meet the needs of human-sample laboratories, should consider the following: we smoothly process samples from multiple species (as many as 10 or more) as they move through the laboratory. Comparing what LabThruPut has done for veterinary laboratories to what competitors do for human-sample-only laboratories reminds us of the 1982 Frank and Ernest cartoon comparing Ginger Rogers’ dancing skills to those of her partner Fred Astaire “Sure he was great, but don’t forget that Ginger Rogers did everything he did, …backwards and in high heels.”

We can do for your organization what we did for Antech Diagnostics. Call us to learn how.

New Product Introduction: CUMU-LIS™

Connect your laboratory devices to LIS/EMR via the Cloud

All you need are a serial-to-ethernet converter (not even that if your device is TCP/IP-ready) and a router. Simply connect one end of the converter to the device and the other end to the router and we do the rest! We establish your instrument and LIS/EMR connections and manage your databases in the cloud.

Using the cloud lets you eliminate capital equipment and maintenance costs. You don’t have to worry about equipment failure; the cloud is always on and more disaster-proof than your own hardware. The cloud is also scalable so that it grows with your business. Using internet security protocols, your data transfer and storage can be as secure as you need them to be. All-in-all a cost-effective and virtually maintenance-free connectivity solution.
