I really like the detail about the single in-house handyman, not that I've ever seen an organization like that...

    I think making up fake reviews for your products should be an instant red flag to people working there.("Yes, I know they're dishonest, but they won't screw me. Really.")

    From what I know of Wal-Mart, it sounds like Wal-Mart has more opportunities for advancement than SCB.

    I think several of my antibody-using colleagues would say Walmart has a better reputation for providing quality products.

    And then there's the fact that SCB just wound up *very deeply* on the wrong side of the USDA--as in, largest fine of its kind in agency history....

    Any idea as to who owns SCBT? I tried to get that info. from public resources but drew blank. Thanks

      See: http://www.metroactive.com/papers/cruz/07.18.96/biofarm-9629.html

      "John and Brenda Stephenson are the sole owners of Santa Cruz Biotechnology, a local antibody manufacturer headquartered on Delaware Street."

      OK, sorry, I may not be right - that is a really old reference.

      According to this 1996 article, its a couple named John and Brenda Stephenson. The company is still privately held, but you are right. There is a lack of information on ownership with a cursory internet search.

      Gee, with that reputation, I can't imagine why ownership wouldn't broadcast their identities over the Internet. I guess that's what shell companies are for.

looks like Blogger doesn't work with anonymous comments from Chrome browsers at the moment - works in Microsoft Edge, or from Chrome with a Blogger account - sorry! CJ 3/21/20
