 PROFILE
Orchid BioSciences helps genetic research bloom. Its SNP-IT technology focuses on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), substances within DNA that indicate genetic diversity, to enhance drug discovery and efficacy. Its primary product, the SNPstream system, searches for specific SNPs on DNA strands, identifying possible sites for drug interactions. The firm also sells test kits and high-throughput SNP scoring services. It has collaborative agreements with such firms as Affymetrix, Eli Lilly, and the SNP Consortium. About 65% of the firm's revenues, however, comes from genetic testing services. Orchid BioSciences' GeneScreen and Cellmark Diagnostics subsidiaries provide forensic and paternity genetic testing.
