About us

Measurement matters As the UK’s National Measurement Laboratory, responsible for chemical and bio-measurement, we form part of the core measurement infrastructure for the UK. We hold two unique roles, funded by UK government: UK's Designated Institute for chemical and bio-measurement and UK Government Chemist. While everyone depends on robust, steadfast chemical and biological measurements – from reliable medical diagnostics to forensics and monitoring the safety of food and water – few people are aware of them. Our internationally recognised scientists develop the fundamental measurement science to support manufacture and trade, protect consumers, promote skills development and enhance quality of life. We partner with government, academia and industry to provide the expertise and knowledge to improve chemical and bio-measurements, resulting in reliable, trusted and proven answers to the most complex scientific issues. We play a leading role internationally to standardise measurements across the world. So that we can all trust food is correctly labelled with no hidden allergens and medicines heal without unexpected side effects. Through our research in advanced therapeutics, clinical diagnostics and safety and security, we provide unique measurement solutions to underpin some of the biggest challenges of our time, including neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, anti-microbial resistance, food safety and global terrorism. Our measurement research, calibration facilities, reference materials and training programmes are available to help unravel and solve the most complex global biological and chemical challenges.
