WellAware™ Error-Free Light Guided Manual Pipetting System is Now Application Based

Conroe, TX, May 25, 2006 --(PR.com)-- BioTX Automation, Inc. is introducing a new application based, light guided manual pipetting system called WellAware. This system is ideal for forensic, paternity, life science, pharmaceutical, preclinical and chemistry labs. WellAware is a software-based system which uses voice, light, time and text cues to guide the operator through every step of a laboratory pipetting protocol thus eliminating errors, speeding up productivity, and reducing stress. WellAware works with single and multi-channel pipettors and barcoded and non-barcoded microplates, micro-tubes, and liquid reservoirs. WellAware’s interactive, graphic interface allows easy protocol setup for techniques such as PCR, DNA sequencing, genotyping, microplate transpositions, dilutions, normalizations, microplate reformatting, cherry-picking and more. WellAware easily integrates with any Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and saves time in protocol preparation, training and during the actual pipetting process. BioTX’s website at www.biotx.net has a video, user manual and pricing for the different WellAware systems.

What our customers are saying about WellAware

“Our lab has been using the Tablet PC version of WellAware since September of 2005 to reduce pipetting errors and to speed our pipetting. The new software we received in April is much easier to use and has reduced our PCR setup and pipetting time in half.” said Dr. O’Neill, Director of Special Projects at MIT’s Broad Institute.

“Cogenics purchased two of BioTX’s WellAware units to simplify and improve a highly repetitive and labor intensive cherry-picking process in our lab. With its LIMS data importer, barcode scanning and voice feedback, what once took two people two hours now takes one person about twenty minutes." Said Dr. David Buck, Senior Vice President Operations for Cogenics™, a Division of Clinical Data®
