Cytiva is an American life sciences company that provides technologies and services for the development and manufacture of therapeutics. It is headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, and operates in over 40 countries with approximately 16,000 employees. Cytiva is a subsidiary of Danaher Corporation.

Cytiva was established on March 31, 2020, after the acquisition of GE Healthcare Life Sciences by Danaher Corporation.^[1] GE Healthcare Life Sciences originated in 2004 following General Electric's acquisition of Amersham Biosciences. Amersham's history includes the acquisition of the Swedish company Pharmacia, known for innovations in chromatography and protein purification.

In January 2023, Cytiva merged with the Life Science business unit of Pall Corporation, also part of Danaher since 2015.^[2] This merger expanded Cytiva’s capabilities in bioprocessing and single-use technologies.

Cytiva supports the biopharmaceutical industry across various stages of drug development and manufacturing. Key product areas include:

• Chromatography Systems: Purification systems for biomolecules.
• Filtration Systems: Depth filters and membrane filters.
• Cell Culture Products: Media, supplements, and reagents.
• Single-Use Technologies: Bioreactors, mixers, and connectors.

• Whatman Filters: Laboratory filters, including filter papers and membranes.

• Electrophoresis Equipment: Tools for protein separation.
• Western Blotting Systems: Instruments for protein detection.

• Nucleic Acid Purification Kits: Tools for DNA and RNA extraction.
• PCR and qPCR Reagents: Reagents for nucleic acid amplification.

• Cytiva Data Bridge: A digital tool that integrates data into quality management systems, enhancing compliance and reducing errors.

Cytiva operates globally, offering its technologies to biopharmaceutical companies, research institutions, and contract manufacturers. The company’s portfolio includes industry-leading brands such as ÄKTA, Amersham, Biacore, and Whatman, with a focus on advancing bioprocessing technologies.

Cytiva's growth has been driven by strategic acquisitions:

• Acquisition by Danaher: In 2020, Danaher acquired GE Healthcare Life Sciences, rebranding it as Cytiva.^[3]
• Integration of Pall Biotech: In 2023, Cytiva merged with Pall Corporation's life sciences unit, enhancing capabilities in single-use systems and filtration.^[4]

Cytiva operates research and development centers in the United States, Sweden, and other locations, focusing on innovations in bioprocessing and therapeutic production.

Cytiva is committed to sustainability, aiming to reduce its environmental impact through sustainable manufacturing practices. The company also supports STEM education and community engagement programs in various regions.

Cytiva’s key locations include:

• Headquarters: Marlborough, Massachusetts, USA.
