Chromadex snaps up Spherix Consulting
Not an ingredient or finished product acquisition, but scientific and regulatory consulting services as ChromaDex acquired Spherix Consulting.
“It’s very complimentary to the services that we offer right now. We don’t do what Spherix Consulting does. So there is no real crossover between the two businesses,” Frank Jaksch (pictured), CEO of ChromaDex, told NutraIngredients-USA.
The acquisition will expand the range of ChromaDex’s services, Jaksch said, and make it more of a one stop shop for customers.
“Toxicology and safety related issues, that fringe into GRAS or NDINs. Those are just some examples of what we will now be able to offer as part of our ChromaDex service offerings,” he said.
