BioTrove, Inc. advances life science and drug discovery research through two revolutionary micro- and nano-scale technologies. A privately held Company, BioTrove is backed by leading venture capitalist firms Catalyst Health and Technology Partners, CB Health Ventures, Vox Equity Partners I & II, Echelon Ventures and Fletcher Spaght, Inc.
BioTrove's innovative platform technologies dramatically increase throughput for pharmaceutical screening and genomics research, accelerating drug-discovery decisions and pipeline development.
OpenArray™ technology enables researchers to perform more than 3,000 assays simultaneously, generating single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) or Real Time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data in the hundreds of thousands of data points per day. Large-scale studies require the examination of hundreds of loci for hundreds or thousands of nucleic acid samples. 
RapidFire™ Mass Spectrometry (RF-MS) uses an innovative microfluidic technology to facilitate sample analysis at faster than 10 seconds per sample - 10 to 100 times faster than conventional technologies. The speed of RapidFire™ technology makes MS-based screening economically viable by overcoming the throughput bottleneck.
