ABTECH was
founded in 1995 as a research and development company
specializing in chemical and biological sensor technologies
for the bioanalytical laboratory, biotechnology process
monitoring and biomedical diagnostics markets.
Today ABTECH is a biomedical diagnostics
company that delivers biosensor devices, biosensor
instruments and biosensor systems to the biomedical research
community and the point of concern biomedical diagnostics
market. At ABTECH we see our purpose and our strength as our
ability to work closely with our customers, to understand
their test and measurement needs, and to address these needs
with appropriate biosensor technologies keeping in mind the
highest of quality, service and economy. Our commitment to
the needs of the life science and biotechnology communities
is reflected in our motto "Sensing for Life".
Our corporate
activities are divided into two business groups. The
Laboratory Products Group supports a direct sale business
with some limited marketing, distribution and sale through
the catalog businesses of other instrument companies. These
products generally reflect our combined corporate knowledge
in microlithography, BIOMEMS, biosmart materials and
molecular biology and include multi-element impedimetric
arrays, sensor devices, transducers, micro-electrodes,
research instruments and software that are used by academic,
industrial, and government researchers in developing and
performing unique biosensor-based enzyme, immunodiagnostic
and DNA-based bioassays. The Advanced Products Group is
responsible for development of the Company's major
proprietary products. The Company's proprietary biosensor
technology is being developed for the point-of-concern
biomedical diagnostics market such as the physician's office
and near patient care situations. Emphasis is on early
cancer detection. This group also works with corporate
partners to develop biological (enzyme, antibody, DNA)
sensor products to meet their emerging market needs. An
example of the activities of the latter includes our
BioSenSys™ Multi-analyte Workstation for
biosensor-based immunodiagnostic assays.
In addition,
our modern research and quality control laboratories allow
us to undertake research, product development, and
manufacture of custom products to meet your emerging
biosensor needs.
