Beckman Coulter GmbH

Beckman Coulter's history began with Dr. Arnold O. Beckman's acidimeter, or pH meter, for precisely measuring the pH of lemon juice, growing from a small operation in Pasadena, California into a world leader in clinical diagnostics and life science research under the vision of Arnold O. Beckman and brothers Wallace and Joseph Coulter. For 75 years, the company has focused on helping create the world's most efficient laboratories that improve patient health and reduce the cost of care, with Beckman Coulter Life Sciences developing advanced technologies and equipment for research and discovery, including centrifugation and flow cytometry products.
