Founded
in 1984, Bio-Synthesis, Inc. was known as OCS Laboratories. It was the
first producer of commercially available synthetic DNA and in 1985, became
a producer of synthetic peptides. Five years later, in 1989, OCS became
incorporated as Bio-Synthesis, Inc. and moved its laboratories to
Lewisville. Bio-Synthesis
occupies 10,000 square feet of modern laboratory space (completed in 1995)
located 20 miles from downtown Dallas and
10 miles from D/FW airport. They provide excellent library
resources. Since then,
Bio-Synthesis has steadily expanded its product lines and services to meet
the growing needs of the Molecular Biology community. It has maintained
its position as an aggressive, innovative company in a highly competitive
marketplace without sacrificing quality. In the beginning, our primary
emphasis was on synthesizing high quality DNA primers and linkers which
were the initial uses of oligos. Today, newer technologies, such as
synthesis of gene construction, PCR, mutagenesis, combinatorial libraries,
dye/adduct labeling, DNA microarrays, peptide-nucleic acid chimerics, etc,
have challenged the molecular biology field. In response, Bio-Synthesis
has branched into several related areas such as DNA paternity testing, DNA
HLA typing, PNA's, genomic sequencing, fluorescence based genotyping,
custom organic synthesis and other molecular biology based applications.
Not
only has Bio-Synthesis continued to provide quality DNA products and
services for the research community, but it has also become a world leader
in providing custom peptide products and services. Using state-of-the-art
solid phase peptide chemistries, Bio-Synthesis provides high quality
peptides, carrier conjugation, antipeptide antibody production, antigenic
peptide design, long peptides, modified peptides, MALDI TOF analysis
contract research, consultation services and more.
Biomedical researchers worldwide in universities, biotech
companies, private clinics, and government agencies use products from
Bio-Synthesis, Inc. in studies ranging from PCR diagnostics to cancer
research and the Human Genome Project. Contact us to discover how
