Company History:
Nebraska Scientific
offers a wide variety of educational science supplies to schools, colleges, and
universities throughout North America. Nebraska Scientific is a division of Cyrgus Company, Inc., one of the nation's leading
processors of preserved biological materials - preserved materials destined for
use in science classrooms around the world. Founded in 1960 near Boyd,
Wisconsin, company founders recognized that by-products and waste products of
the packing industry were ideal for study in biology, life science, and
anatomy classrooms. Rather than allowing these by-products to go to waste, the
company began preserving a wide range of beef, pig, and sheep organs for
science classroom study. Fetal pigs, brains, eyes, and kidneys are just a few
of the many materials which the company processes.
Shortly after it was founded, the
company moved to Omaha, Nebraska in order to be close to major livestock
markets, and has remained headquartered there ever since. Nebraska Scientific,
the retail division of the company, was formed in 1968 in response to demand
from schools to buy direct from the processor.
Over the years, Nebraska Scientific expanded its offerings
far beyond preserved specimens. Recognizing the need for students in
non-dissecting classrooms to learn about anatomy, the company began producing
videos and CD-Roms as alternatives and supplements to
dissection. Nebraska Scientific currently offers 16 different "Anatomy and
Dissection" videos and two CD-Roms. In addition
to specimens, videos, and CD's, Nebraska Scientific now supplies a full range
of over 2,000 educational science products for use in biology, anatomy, life
science, and environmental science classrooms in all 50 states and Canada.
