The Megazyme Group

Barry McCleary Founder

Prof. Barry McCleary, CEO, received his PhD in 1975 from the University of Sydney, and DScAgr degree in 1989 from the same University.  His contributions to analytical chemistry have been recognised at the highest international level, including the Guthrie Medal from the Royal Australian Chemical Institute, the Harvey W. Wiley Award from AOAC International, the Clyde H. Bailey Medal from ICC, the Edith A. Christensen award, and the Applied Research Medal from AACC International.

From 2009-2011, Prof. McCleary served as President-Elect, President and Chair of the Board of AACC International. In 2010 he received the inaugural International Achievement Award from the Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, University of Sydney and was recognised again in 2014 with the overall University of Sydney Alumni Award for International Achievement, awarded for his contribution to the enrichment of society through his commitment to improving food standards throughout the world.

Megazyme

Megazyme was founded in 1988 and has been based in Bray, County Wicklow since 1996. Megazyme’s research laboratories, manufacturing facilities, and business headquarters are co-located on a single campus, which has grown as the company has expanded and diversified.

In 2005, Megazyme extended its research centre to accommodate the new Molecular Biology division. The research laboratories were extended further in 2013 to increase Megazyme’s fermentation capabilities and house a new synthetic Organic Chemistry laboratory.

As a company, Megazyme is recognised as one of Europe’s dynamic and innovative life sciences companies. In 2016, Megazyme received the Ruban D’Honneur for entrepreneurship at the prestigious European Business Awards and won the Irish Times Innovation Award in the Life Sciences and Healthcare category.

Megazyme Inc.

Based in Chicago, our subsidiary Megazyme Inc. was established in 2015 in order to provide specialised support to our many customers in the United States.      

Pioneers in Diagnostic Testing

Megazyme’s research efforts are focussed on the development of test kits and reagents for use in analytical and research laboratories. Megazyme test kits – developed and manufactured in-house – have attracted worldwide acclaim for their genuinely innovative methodologies and for the exceptional purity of the enzymes bundled with the kits.

At Megazyme, we have leveraged our expertise in cereals research to create products suitable for a wide range of industries. Our products are primarily used by producers and scientists in the food, feed, dairy, wine, and fermentation industries. Our enzyme test tablets have been adopted by enzyme manufacturers around the world as part of their quality control processes.

Method Validation and Recognition by Official Bodies

Many of the analytical methods developed by Megazyme have been validated as official standard methods, recommended by the relevant regulatory bodies and scientific associations following rigorous inter-laboratory evaluations. For example, Codex Alimentarius (the United Nations body that sets guidelines for national governments in the area of food standards) has approved 14 methods for the measurement of total dietary fiber and dietary fiber components – of which four were developed by Megazyme.

These stamps of approval demonstrate that we can deliver accurate, reliable, quantitative and easy-to-use test methods that meet our customers’ exacting specifications. The following official bodies have approved one or more Megazyme test procedures:
