Joffin scientific, human GMbH partner on medical diagnosis - Utilisation of modern diagnostic tools and equipment to transform and improve the face of medical care in the country has again taken the forefront as Joffin Scientific Instruments Nig. Ltd and Germany's Human GMbH - a leading global manufacturer of cutting-edge diagnostic equipment - are partnering to market latest models and range of diagnostic equipment and reagents to aid effective and reliable results from Nigerian hospitals and laboratories.

"We want to bridge that gap with our relationship with Human so that our healthcare institutions can have the opportunity to avail themselves of purchasing high quality products that would enable them have efficient and quality of results in their day to day operations.
