Overview
ZEUS Scientific is an established, privately-held diagnostics company founded in 1987 and headquartered in Lincoln, USA. It has built a robust portfolio centered on autoimmune and infectious disease diagnostics, leveraging three core technology platforms: ELISA, multiplex bead arrays, and immunofluorescence.
