One Partner for Testing, Calibration, and Product Development
Forward Biotechnologies helps biotech companies, medical device teams,
labs, and startups get the technical work done — without building every
capability in-house.
Core Services
Whatever stage your project is at, we likely have the resource for it.
Testing
Analytical, microbiological, and physical testing including gas chromatography, bioburden, endotoxin, and more.
Calibrations
Pipette, balance/scale, weight, thermometer, hygrometer, and pH meter calibration, with select services available on-site.
Product Design
3D modeling, 3D printing, laser engraving, precision liquid dispensing, and finishing services to move a concept toward a working prototype.
Equipment Rental
Pipettes, Class 3 weights, microscopes, fume hoods, Class 2 laminar flow hoods, and other select lab equipment.
Why Forward Biotechnologies
Most companies in this space specialize in one lane — testing, or calibration, or product development. Very few combine them, and fewer still can go both broad and deep into niche areas. We do both, and we build our process around what actually moves your project forward, not around a standard package.
If you’re a startup trying to stretch a budget, or an established company that needs a specific test run without adding headcount, we’re built to plug in exactly where you need us.
Featured Testing Capabilities
A sample of what we run in-house:
- Gas Chromatography
- Bioburden Testing
- Endotoxin Testing
- UV-Vis Spectrophotometry
- pH Testing
Product Development Capabilities
From a 3D file to a physical part:
- 3D Modeling and File Transformations
- 3D Printing (single-piece resin printing up to 13.9 × 7.7 × 13.8 in)
- 3D Laser Engraving
- Precision Liquid Dispensing
- Finishing Services: Electroplating, Painting
Equipment & Laboratory Resources
Not every project justifies buying a piece of equipment outright. Rent access to pipettes,
Class 3 weights, microscopes, a fume hood, a Class 2 laminar flow hood, and other
select lab equipment instead.
Who We Work With
We plug into technical teams of every size — from a single founder with a file to a quality group that needs one method run this quarter.
- Biotechnology Startups
- Medical Device Companies
- Laboratories
- Researchers & Universities
- Engineering Teams
- Entrepreneurs Developing Technical Products

Calibrations
How often should a pipette actually be calibrated?
Calibration intervals are usually inherited from a template rather than chosen. Here is how to set one based on how the instrument is really used.

Testing
How often should a pipette actually be calibrated?
The two get used interchangeably in early planning and it costs teams weeks. A plain-language comparison of scope, timing, and cost.
