Business Operations [Abstract]
BUSINESS OPERATIONS	1. BUSINESS OPERATIONS ImmuCell Corporation (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) was originally incorporated in Maine in 1982 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1987, in conjunction with an initial public offering of common stock. We are an animal health company whose purpose is to create scientifically proven and practical products that improve the health and productivity of dairy and beef cattle. As disclosed in Note 17, “Segment Information”, one of our business segments is dedicated to Scours and the other is focused on Mastitis. We manufacture and market the First Defense^® product line, providing Immediate Immunity™ to prevent scours in newborn dairy and beef calves. We have expanded this line into four different products with formulations targeting E. coli, coronavirus and rotavirus pathogens. We are also in the late stages of developing Re-Tain^®, a treatment for lactating dairy cows with subclinical mastitis. Mastitis is the most significant cause of economic loss to the dairy industry. These products help reduce the need to use traditional antibiotics in food producing animals. We are subject to certain risks including dependence on key individuals and third-party providers of critical goods and services, competition from other larger companies, the successful sale of existing products and the development of new viable products with appropriate regulatory approvals, where applicable. A combination of the conditions, trends and concerns related to or arising from the global COVID-19 pandemic, as well as inflation, rising interest rates and potential recessionary conditions in the United States and/or internationally, could have a corresponding negative effect on our business and operations. We are experiencing price increases in key components, supportive services, transportation and other supplies that are causing our costs of goods sold to increase. As discussed in more detail previously and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, we have experienced some contamination events in our production process. We implemented a production slowdown during the first half of 2023 to remediate this problem, which led to the recognition of lower sales and gross margin during the first nine months of 2023. Current quality control data suggests that this is largely behind us now, and we are resuming full production.
