Biomarine Research Corporation was founded in 1973, originally serving the local seafood industry in Gloucester. The lab services soon expanded to include water quality testing. Biomarine has been in the same family, at the same location, serving the local community and abroad, for over 50 years. With long-time Gloucester residents Jim Groleau (owner) and Tracey Fraser (office manager), you can be sure to find quick and efficient testing services.

Our Story

Testing & Inspection Since 1973

Every assay we conduct follows strict USFDA guidelines. Our physical proximity to the water ensures that samples are analyzed immediately upon arrival, preserving integrity and securing compliance.
