# Sample6

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/sample6/  
**APIs profiled:** 0

Sample6 was a food-safety technology company (a Canaan Partners portfolio company) that developed rapid, bioluminescence-based pathogen detection and environmental monitoring products for the food industry, aimed at catching contamination such as Listeria, Salmonella, and E. coli before product shipped. The business was acquired and absorbed into IEH Laboratories & Consulting Group; the sample6.com domain now redirects to iehinc.com. No independent developer portal, public API, or machine-readable API artifacts survive, so this record is retained as a historical company profile rather than an active API provider.
