EPA, Pfizer contract with Caliper
By Matthew L. Brown
Hopkinton-based Caliper Life Sciences Inc. said it signed two new contracts, one with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the other with Pfizer Inc.
The contracts ask Caliper to test the effects of toxic chemicals, and drugs currently in development.
Caliper's Discovery Alliances and Services division was awarded the contracts.
The EPA contract is worth between $1.4 million and $69 million over the next two to five years.
Caliper said it would help the EPA develop new ways to predict how chemicals like pesticides will interact with the environment, humans and animals.
The one-year contract with Pfizer is for Caliper to help Pfizer search for new uses for drug compounds already in development.
