    Does anyone have some advice about where to start?  I am in Ontario, and the only information I can find is regarding medical lab regulations and licencing.  

    What is my initial start up cost with used equipment.   I would appreciate any advice.  Thank You :)

    Best place to start would be looking at the need and demand for these services in your area. Once identifying the lab services required, this would be a guide for equipment procurement and the type & size of premises required. 

    You may also need to look at staffing, their availability, and cost.
