light guided manual pipetting system called WellAware which is ideal for forensic,
paternity, life science, pharmaceutical, preclinical and chemistry labs. WellAware
provides lab managers with an inexpensive alternative or supplement to full

genotyping, microplate transpositions, dilutions, normalizations, microplate
reformatting and cherry-picking.

Press Release Body = Conroe, Texas, May 24, 2006 - 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. See how this system works via our interactive web video and download our
free 30 day trial demo software now at www.biotx.net. BioTX has a system for every
budget, prices range from under $2.5K to $9K. BioTX is so sure WellAware will
significantly reduce protocol setup and pipetting time while also eliminating well
to well pipetting errors we offer a 30-day risk-free money back guarantee.

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.

We 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 CogenicsT, a Division of Clinical Data®
