Our Mission

BioXing's (pronounced 'Bio Crossing') mission is to provide new bioinformatics infrastructure and tools to improve the practice of biotechnology.  

BioXing™ provides Bioinformatics solutions to academic laboratories and biotechnology companies. The company designs and builds scalable custom databases and develops native and web-based software tools for storing, retrieving, analyzing, correlating, mining and visualizing disparate types of data and linking to external information.

BioXing™ offers a range of Bioinformatics solutions depending upon the amount and rate of data being gathered, analyzed, integrated and mined. Academic research laboratories may only need a file sharing system using peer to peer networking of computers where as medium size research facilities or biotechnology companies may need  a client -server network with a single server. These two systems may use PC or MAC workstations and a PC Server. However, academic laboratories or biotechnology companies that generate and analyze terabytes of information would need a scaleable and distributable client-server network with high-end multiple servers having large storage capacity and recovery capability. BioXing has developed a universal self-architecting database called BioConnections™  that can be put onto different database server platforms, can be scaled and can accommodate a  variety of data types. A totally integrated set of software products has been designed to work with any of these systems.  

The collection of products is called WebFormatics™ for the web based implementation and  NetFormatics™ for the version using the Microsoft® .NET® platform.  Individual components are named with the beginning letters of Bx followed by a descriptive text for the component. In addition throughout the database schema unique IDs are used, for example, for SOPs, Protocols, samples and projects. The IDs are preceded by the letters Bx to reflect that they are automatically generated by the data system to ensure uniqueness. The product module called LabConnect™, which will interface to the both informatics systems, will control and synchronize running of multiple types of instruments by accepting  upstream method parameters and by providing instrument status updates and data.

Descriptions of typical integrated laboratories for microarrays (BxArraytm)  and other laboratories (BxLabtm) as well as hardware configurations are presented in the Documents section of the Products section. In addition the overall architecture of the process flow for building Knowledge databases (BxKnowledgetm ) is presented.
