“This investment bolsters our commitment to the New York tristate healthcare communities and we are confident that Enzo Clinical Labs patients and providers will have a combined experience that exceeds their laboratory needs,” Hass added.

The company’s remaining operating segment, Enzo Life Sciences, supplies a complete portfolio of products and services used in drug discovery, development and translational research applications.
