Neogen Plans to Double R&D Staff, Efforts
Date:6/12/2008

LANSING, Mich., June 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Neogen Corporation (Nasdaq: NEOG) announced today that it intends to double its research and development efforts for its new fiscal year, which began June 1, by hiring 23 additional R&D personnel by early fall.

"The organizational structure of our research and development groups has served us well throughout Neogen's 26-year history.

Most of the staff expansion will occur in Neogen's Lansing, Mich., laboratories, but will support the development of new products for the Lexington, Ky.-based Animal Safety Division, as well as support the research teams in Randolph, Wisc., and Ayr, Scotland.

"New product opportunities that fit Neogen's mission of food and animal safety have greatly expanded in the past year," said Herbert. "As the world has become smaller in terms of food imports and exports, and as regulations regarding food and animal safety are becoming more stringent throughout the world, there are a tremendous number of opportunities to enhance Neogen's growth."

Neogen Corporation develops and markets products dedicated to food and animal safety. The company's Food Safety Division markets dehydrated culture media, and diagnostic te
