 PROFILE
The house special at Specialty Laboratories is the esoteric assay. The company performs more than 3,500 specialized tests (called esoteric assays) for hospitals, independent clinical laboratories, and physicians. Rather than focusing on routine assays performed in-house at hospitals and laboratories, the company provides more complex services like cancer evaluations, autoimmune panels, drug therapy monitoring, and the detection of viruses and bacteria. Specialty Laboratories sells its assays under such names as GenotypR (for predicting resistance to HIV) and ANAlyzer, which aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders. Chairman and CEO James Peter owns some two-thirds of the company.
