BioTX Automation, Inc.

Description

BioTX Automation was founded in 2003, by James Frost who began his career in 1985, working as a lab technician for Baylor College of Medicine. His boss at the time, tasked him with a tricky problem: how to make thousands of synthetic oligonucleotides (DNA) in record time, inexpensively. His boss needed the DNA for his research. So they invented a machine that could make synthetic DNA faster and cheaper than anyone else. Out of that patented invention came Genosys, co-founded by James and Ken. Genosys grew from a company run out of a small closet at Baylor into a multimillion dollar entity that was sold to Sigma Aldrich in 1998. While at Genosys, James encountered numerous challenges in engineering, chemistry, automation, and software & database development. He has brought those accumulated talents and developed skills to BioTX Automation, where he looks for significant unmet challenges and opportunities in the life science and forensic arena. And he has brought along former employees from Genosys as well as engineering students and very talented high school interns to take ideas and turn them into useful products. Since 2003, BioTX Automation has introduced a number of products as well as deploying its skills for a multitude of custom design and manufacturing projects. BioTX product areas include
