Abstract
The first of April 1994 saw the beginning of the present-day Centre for Applied Microbiology & Research for this was the date upon which the Microbiological Research Authority came into being and CAMR parted company with the Public Health Laboratory Service. The PHLS had been ‘owners’ of the Centre for exactly 15 years and during that time it had undergone considerable change. However, it is probably also true to say that although it had become much more commercial in its outlook over the period, it had still not fulfilled its potential for maximizing income. This was to change as the 1990s progressed.
