 PROFILE
Quest Diagnostics is testing its ability to become the world's #1 clinical laboratory. The company (a 1996 Corning spinoff) performs more than 100 million routine tests annually, including cholesterol, HIV, pregnancy, alcohol, and pap smear tests. It operates labs throughout the US and in Mexico and the UK. Quest Diagnostics also performs esoteric testing (complex, low-volume tests) and clinical trials; almost half of its clinical trial testing is performed for GlaxoSmithKline. It serves doctors, hospitals, HMOs, and other labs, as well as corporations, government agencies, and prisons. Quest Diagnostics bought the clinical trials operations of GlaxoSmithKline, which owns more than a quarter of Quest Diagnostics.
