SuperArray Bioscience Changes Name to SABiosciences and Moves Into New Larger Facility on Verge of Tenth Anniversary

FREDERICK, Md., July 23 — SuperArray

Bioscience Corporation announced today it has changed its name to

SABiosciences Corporation and moved to a brand new facility three times

larger than the previous location. The changes reflect both its phenomenal

growth over the last few years and its continuing expansion into other

additional technologies besides gene expression analysis.

“We are not just a microarray company anymore,” said Dave Martz, Vice

President of Sales and Marketing at SABiosciences. “We are now and will

continue to become so much more. SuperArray developed a solid reputation

for delivering pathway-focused content for gene expression analysis, first

with its hybridization-based microarrays and then most recently and much

more successfully with real-time PCR Arrays. However, to provide our vision

of a systems biology approach in a post-genomic era, SABiosciences now also

offers gene function analysis solutions such as RNA interference, ELISA

kits, cell-based reporter assays, as well as chromatin immunoprecipitation

and other products for epigenomics research.”

The move and name change occurs on the heels of receiving the Tech

Council of Maryland Frederick County Firm of the Year Award in 2007 and

just before their tenth anniversary as an incorporated company. Rapid

growth and continually aggressive revenue projections allowed and indeed

necessitated more personnel and capital equipment. After quickly outgrowing

their currently available space of 18,000 square feet, the company moves to

a new building with 43,000 square feet that supports 150 full-time

employees. The company remains in Frederick, Maryland, only a few blocks

away in the newly developed Westview South Office Research Center.

“To accommodate our rapid business growth and to better serve our

customers, we built this new facility with state of the art R&D lab space,

molecular and cell biology instruments, particle-free clean rooms,” Martz

continued. “As we approach our tenth anniversary this fall, we are very

excited about the opportunities for our continued success that the new

location will provide us. The name change better reflects our business

model and vision for the future. We will continue bringing cutting edge

technologies into every biological research laboratory with relevant

biological content.”
