Description:
BioTrove was founded in 1997 as Advanced Instrumentation Systems by Professor Ian Hunter of the M.I.T. Bio-Instrumentation Laboratory and several of his colleagues. The BioTrove team includes engineers within the disciplines of mechanical, chemical, software, biomedical and optical engineering and scientists with expertise in diversity biology, enzymology, toxicology, analytical chemistry, materials and surface science.
BioTrove is dedicated to delivering dramatic increased in the density and rate at which chemicals and materials may be stored, manipulated and tested for desired properties. Areas of applications for BioTrove's technology include drug discovery, protein engineering, genomics, proteomics, biosensors, chemical engineering and materials sciences.
The Living Chip™ technology enables rapid initiation and analysis of between 10,000 to 1,000,000 reactions simultaneously. The Living Chip™ consists of a plate of high density, micromachined through-holes providing the functionality of a microtiter plate with the density of a micro-array. BioTrove's mid-term goal is to develop a platform to screen as many as one billion samples per day in volumes of less than 50 nanoliters each. BioTrove plans to develop methods for synthesizing arrays of molecules directly on the Living Chip. |
