About

More than 150 years of combined experience in analytical instrumentation — and every one of those years is available on the other end of the phone.

AGS Scientific has supported analytical laboratories across North America from Bryan, Texas since 2003. Our team has spent careers on both sides of the bench: running the instruments, managing the labs, developing the methods, and servicing the equipment. That is why the person who answers your call can usually answer your question.
