Nexbio

What Nexbio does

Nexbio is a privately held Polish molecular biology laboratory headquartered in Lublin, founded in 2015 as Nexbio Sp. z o.o. The company provides nucleic acid analysis (DNA and RNA) services across four operating segments: Agriculture (plant disease diagnostics for 75+ crop categories, soil/water/fertilizer/pesticide residue/mycotoxin testing, and independent agronomic advisory), Industry (molecular identification of microorganisms from production lines, finished products, and environmental samples, including microbiome characterization with percentage-distribution reporting), Science/Research (Sanger and NGS sequencing on platforms including MiSeq, HiSeq, NovaSeq6000, PacBio RS II, and Oxford Nanopore; oligonucleotide synthesis; gene synthesis; molecular identification; and bioinformatics analyses such as MLST, virulence gene detection, and SNP typing), and a consumer service branded DNA Pamięci (animal DNA preservation of deceased pets in decorative keepsakes, priced at 2,900 PLN gross for the basic package).

The business model is service-based and professional-fee in nature, with the company operating as a contract diagnostic and research laboratory. Pricing is quote-based for the agricultural, industrial, and scientific lines, while DNA Pamięci has publicly disclosed unit pricing. Distribution is direct (phone, email, lab visits, field sampling across Poland) supplemented by a self-serve ordering portal for sequencing (sekwencjonowanie.com) and a network of partnered pet crematoriums for the DNA Pamięci line. The headcount is reported as 1–10 with a named team of six including a CEO, Operations Director, Laboratory Manager, Key Accounts Specialist, and laboratory assistants, suggesting a tightly run specialist operation.

Core offering

Nexbio is a molecular biology laboratory in Lublin, Poland that performs DNA/RNA-based diagnostic and research services. It offers plant disease testing for agriculture, microorganism identification for industry, Sanger/NGS sequencing and gene/oligo synthesis for science, and a consumer animal DNA preservation keepsake service.

Product overview

Nexbio is a molecular biology laboratory offering a portfolio of diagnostic and research services across four main categories: Agriculture Services (plant disease testing for 75+ crops using molecular methods, soil and water analysis), Industry Services (molecular microorganism identification from industrial samples and products), Science Services (Sanger sequencing, oligonucleotide synthesis, molecular identification, bioinformatics analyses, gene synthesis, and NGS sequencing), and DNA Memory (DNA Pamięci) — a consumer service preserving animal DNA in decorative keepsakes. The company operates as a service-based business rather than a software platform, providing laboratory analyses and consulting to agriculture, industry, and scientific sectors.

Broad incumbents

• Eurofins Scientific: Global leader in food, environmental, pharmaceutical, and agroscience testing. Comparable to Nexbio across multiple verticals — agricultural residue testing, food microbiological identification, and genomic sequencing services — but at vastly greater scale and geographic reach.
• SGS: World's largest testing, inspection and certification company with agricultural and food testing labs across Europe. Comparable to Nexbio's agricultural testing and food microbiology lines, but as part of a much broader TIC portfolio.
• Bureau Veritas: Global TIC incumbent offering agri-food, environmental, and laboratory testing services. Overlaps with Nexbio on agricultural commodity testing and microbiological identification, but operates as a multi-vertical generalist rather than molecular-biology specialist.
• bioMérieux: French in vitro diagnostics and industrial microbiology specialist. Comparable to Nexbio's industrial microbiology / microorganism identification line for food and cosmetics QC, but operates at global scale with proprietary industrial equipment and reagent kits.
• LGC Group: UK-based life sciences tools and measurement services company with genomics (LGC Genomics), agricultural and food testing capabilities. Overlaps with Nexbio's sequencing services and agricultural testing; serves as a broader-scale incumbent.

Direct peers

• Agdia: US-based specialist in plant pathogen diagnostics using ELISA and molecular methods for crops. Directly comparable to Nexbio's agricultural plant disease testing across multiple crops, including pathogen-specific test kits for viruses, bacteria, fungi, and phytoplasmas.
• BIOREBA: Swiss specialist in plant disease diagnostics including ELISA and PCR-based pathogen detection for agriculture. Most direct comparable to Nexbio's crop disease testing portfolio in terms of pathogen coverage and target customer (growers, advisors, labs).
• Genomed: Polish molecular diagnostics and sequencing service provider headquartered in Warsaw. Most locally comparable peer — competes with Nexbio's Sanger sequencing, molecular identification, and bioinformatics services in the same Polish research market.

Regional players

• Macrogen: Korea-headquartered genomics service provider offering Sanger and NGS sequencing, gene synthesis, and bioinformatics — directly overlapping with Nexbio's Science services line. Comparable technology stack but serves primarily Asian and US markets.

Emerging players

• DNA Diagnostics Center: Consumer-facing DNA testing service. Comparable to Nexbio's DNA Pamięci service in the consumer DNA market — both offer direct-to-consumer genetic products — though DDC focuses on ancestry and paternity rather than pet memorial.
