Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Industry Segment Information
Industry Segment and Geographic Area Information

The Company discloses information about its operating segments based on the way that management organizes the segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on revenue and operating income. Intersegment revenue and transfers are not significant. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in Note 1.

The principal products and services of the Company's two operating segments are:
Discovery & Analytical Solutions. Provides products and services targeted towards the environmental, industrial, food, life sciences research and laboratory services markets.
Diagnostics. Develops diagnostics, tools and applications focused on clinically-oriented customers, especially within the reproductive health, emerging market diagnostics and applied genomics markets. The Diagnostics segment serves the diagnostics market.

The Company has included the expenses for its corporate headquarters, such as legal, tax, audit, human resources, information technology, and other management and compliance costs, as well as the activity related to the mark-to-market adjustment on postretirement benefit plans, as “Corporate” below. The Company has a process to allocate and recharge expenses to the reportable segments when these costs are administered or paid by the corporate headquarters based on the extent to which the segment benefited from the expenses. These amounts have been calculated in a consistent manner and are included in the Company’s calculations of segment results to internally plan and assess the performance of each segment for all purposes, including determining the compensation of the business leaders for each of the Company’s operating segments. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company changed the manner in which certain shared functional costs are allocated to the operating segments. Segment financial information relating to the fiscal years ended January 1, 2017 and January 3, 2016 have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect this change to the cost allocation methodology. Accordingly, for the fiscal years ended January 1, 2017 and January 3, 2016, operating income from continuing operations from the Discovery & Analytical Solutions segment decreased by $10.7 million and $10.9 million, respectively, with corresponding increases in operating income from continuing operations of the Diagnostics segment in both fiscal years.

Revenue and operating income (loss) from continuing operations by operating segment are shown in the table below for the fiscal years ended:
