About Hygea Life Sciences
Canadian research rooted in discovery, driven by science
We develop diagnostic test kits, treatments, and preventive methods for the management of infectious and cell-based disease in the animal and agriculture markets.
Since 1995
Our Story
Hygea Life Sciences Inc. is a Canadian medical research company with scientific roots stretching back to 1995. Over decades of focused research, our scientific team evolved a multiple-use test kit platform that has since been patented in several regions — including Canada, the United States, Mexico, China, Japan, Australia, and India.
That foundation of intellectual property and scientific rigour underpins everything we do today: developing practical, field-ready diagnostic solutions for veterinarians and producers working in the animal and agriculture sectors.
"Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought."
