Over the years, the Clinical Controls Division (formerly R&D Systems Hematology) has continued to develop a variety of hematology controls. In the early 1980s, however, workers at R&D Systems noted that a growth factor with diverse and intriguing properties had been identified in platelets. At this time we turned our attention to the possibility of producing growth factor as a reagent for the research community.</p></div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--full-page-text-with-media mb-4 paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div> <img src="https://resources.bio-techne.com/bio-techne-assets/images/about/land-o-lakes-minnepolis-minnesota-bio-techne-hq.jpg" alt="Former Land O'Lakes factory circa 1927 and current Bio-Techne headquarters." loading="lazy" > </div> <div>Former Land O'Lakes factory circa 1927 and current Bio-Techne headquarters.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--section paragraph--view-mode--default mb-4"> <div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--_-1-text-to-media mb-4 paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div class="container-fluid container-wide"> <div class="layout layout--twocol-section layout--twocol-section--75-25"> <div class="layout__region layout__region--first"> <div class="hero-content-wrap"> <div class="field_block:paragraph:3_1_text_to_media:field_header_2_global"> <div><h2>R&D Systems Enters the Biotechnology Market</h2></div> </div> <div class="field_block:paragraph:3_1_text_to_media:field_lg_sngl_frmtd_text_global"> <div><p>In 1985, we released our first research reagent, <a href="/search?keywords=tgf-beta%201">TGF-beta 1</a>, becoming the first company in the world to produce this cytokine commercially. TGF-beta 1 acts as an extracellular signaling molecule that is produced by many cell types. It is involved in such processes as immune function, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. Following the launch of this product, we purified several other cytokines from natural sources and released them to the research market. Of great interest to biomedical researchers, cytokines are specialized proteins mediating communication between cells. They have many biological activities including regulating developmental processes and orchestrating the immune response. In addition, unregulated cytokine activity has been linked to many diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and inflammatory disorders.</p> <p>Encouraged by success in the cytokine market, we formed the Growth Factor (now known as Biotechnology) Division in 1985 with the goal of producing and marketing a wide range of human cytokines through genetic engineering. Recombinant DNA technology offers several advantages over extraction of these proteins from natural sources, including lower production cost and potentially unlimited supply. In 1989, the Biotechnology Division began developing monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to cytokines, and in 1990 we developed our first enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit.</p> <p>In 1991, with the purchase of Amgen's Biologicals and Dx business, we obtained our first cytokine ELISA assay kit cleared by the FDA for clinical diagnostics use. In 1998, we purchased Genzyme Corporation's Research Products business. The acquisition established us as the world's leading supplier of research and diagnostics cytokine products.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="layout__region layout__region--second"> <div class="hero-content-wrap"> <div class="field_block:paragraph:3_1_text_to_media:field_indv_media"> <div> <img src="https://resources.bio-techne.com/bio-techne-assets/images/about/about_us_TGF-beta_1.jpg" alt="TGF-Beta 1 protein" loading="lazy" > </div> </div> <div class="field_block:paragraph:3_1_text_to_media:field_image_caption"> <div>Ribbon structure of TGF-Beta 1, an R&D Systems product.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--section paragraph--view-mode--default mb-4"> <div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--header"> <div> <div><h2>Expanding to Reach New Markets</h2></div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--_-1-text-to-media mb-4 paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div class="container-fluid container-wide"> <div class="layout layout--twocol-section layout--twocol-section--75-25"> <div class="layout__region layout__region--first"> <div class="hero-content-wrap"> <div class="field_block:paragraph:3_1_text_to_media:field_lg_sngl_frmtd_text_global"> <div><p>In the 1990s, R&D Systems turned its focus to expanding its sales and distribution network. We purchased British Bio-technology Products Ltd., based in the UK, establishing it as our first European distributor, renaming the group R&D Systems Europe, which is today known as Bio-Techne Ltd. Bio-Techne Ltd supplies products throughout Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and has subsidiaries in Ireland (Bio-Techne Ireland Limited), France (Bio-Techne SAS), Germany (Bio-Techne Gmbh) Switzerland (Bio-Techne AG), Italy (Bio-Techne srl), Spain (Bio-Techne R&D Systems, s.l.), Czech Republic (Bio-Techne R&D Systems s.r.o.), Hungary (Bio-Techne R&D Systems Kft.), and Poland (Bio-Techne sp. z o.o.).</p> <p>In 2007, R&D Systems established its wholly owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China, opening its warehouse and distribution center later that year in Shanghai. The subsidiary provides warehousing, marketing, sales, and technical services for the growing Chinese market. In 2011, R&D Systems China established a sales subsidiary in Hong Kong.</p> <p>We also made strategic acquisitions. In 2005, R&D Systems acquired Fortron Bioscience, Inc., a developer and manufacturer of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies, antigens, and other biological reagents. With this purchase, we also acquired BiosPacific, Inc., a worldwide supplier of immunological reagents to the commercial diagnostic industry and a company with skills in supporting customers collaboratively from feasibility testing to manufacturing. The acquisitions enhanced R&D Systems’ ability to serve the diagnostics industry. Fortron was merged into R&D Systems Biotechnology Division in July 2007. In April, 2011, R&D Systems acquired the assets of Boston Biochem, Inc., a leading global developer and manufacturer of innovative ubiquitin-related research products. Founded in 1997, Boston Biochem specializes in several related product lines for ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins and associated enzymes, substrates, inhibitors, and kits.
