Our History
ZymaX Forensics was established in June 1999 when ZymaX Envirotechnology, Inc. aquired the assets of Global Geochemistry Corporation of Canoga Park, California, a internationally respected environmental forensics and geochemistry firm.
In 2005, ZymaX merged with DPRA. Through this acquisition, DPRA augmented its existing in-house geochemistry resources and gained additional litigation support for the environmental forensics work conducted by the firm's St. Paul and San Diego offices.
