Droycon Bioconcepts Inc

A biotechnology company focussed on applications relating to environmental management. Manufacturing is centered on the production of patented biodetectors distributed under the trademark BART. Research and development relates to the expansion of opportunities generated by the BART test systems. Successful applications have already been developed for the management of corrosion in the oil and gas industries, clogging in the water industry, biofouling, and bioremediation. Rehabilitation technologies have been developed to suppress clogging and corrosion in various types of wells and drainage systems using a patented blended chemical heat treatment (BCHT). Most sales are in the U.S. primarily servicing the water and chemical industries. Environmental Profile Droycon specializes in technologies to detect various specific groups of bacteria which pose economic and/or health concerns. The technique commonly employed is the patented biological activity reaction test (BART (TM)). A Windows® based software program (BART-SOFT (TM)) allows the data interpretation and file management of the data generated. The coliform test has only recently been announced and efforts are being made to fully automate the testing procedure with a hardware/software package. Prototype trials are currently underway. ISO 9001 Certified. Hach Corporation provides a full customer support network globally. Droycon will respond to customer concerns directly when requested. Droycon's research, development and manufacturing laboratories are centered at the Technology Development Facility of the University of Regina and are capable of undertaking consulting work and producing customised biodetectors to meet the specialized needs of clients where this is appropriate. Droycon is interested in partnership arrangements to develop new technological solutions to microbially induced problems such as clogging, corrosion, acid mine drainage,"weathering" or others associated with extreme environmental conditions.
