    • Continued its innovation and product launches, particularly around self-testing
    • Continued expansion of the Group's SAFER@WORK™ offering
  • Continued cooperation between business lines to share knowledge and enhance cross selling efforts with, as an example, PFAS2 testing becoming of increasing interest for environmental and food industry
  • Strong activity across the Group's diverse Drug Discovery portfolio with strong pick-up in discovery programmes in Q1
  • Continued reinforcement of the Group's capabilities in Food and Agriproducts Testing:
    • In Europe, with a start-up laboratory in Lodz, Poland, and a new laboratory in Croatia close to Zagreb
    • In the U.S., with strong volume growth across the entire portfolio
    • Launch of Eurofins' new NGS offer for bacterial flora identification
