Centaur Animal Health is a small veterinary services company based in Olathe, Kansas, that focuses on adapting proven technologies from human healthcare to address animal health challenges. The company develops diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceuticals for both companion and production animals and licenses patent-protected technologies from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms, with contract manufacturing available at its FDA- and DEA-certified facility. Historically, it gained recognition for an equine infectious anemia diagnostic adapted from a human AIDS test, for which a patent was granted in 1995. Products are distributed through national distributors, though Centaur retains the option to sell directly to laboratories or veterinarians that prefer direct purchasing. Its direct customer base comprises about a thousand accounts, and it ships to many USDA-approved laboratories.
