What Equitech-Bio does

Equitech-Bio Inc. is a US-based, privately held manufacturer and supplier of high-purity animal and human biological reagents, operating from near Hamilton, Texas under the legal name Equitech-Bio Inc. The company was founded in 1991 and has supplied serum proteins, albumins, plasma, sera, IgG products, and polyclonal antisera to laboratories, diagnostic manufacturers, and academic institutions worldwide for over 30 years. Its catalog spans more than 500 SKUs derived from 16+ animal species (bovine, canine, feline, equine, goat, porcine, rabbit, rat, sheep, mouse, chicken, donkey, guinea pig, hamster, and human), with products rated at ≥96–98% purity and offered in formats ranging from 50ml research samples to 10kg bulk powder.

The company's core technology rests on proprietary heat-shock fractionation and modified Cohn methods, used to produce Heat Shock BSA (BAH series), modified Cohn Fraction V BSA (BAC series), sterile-filtered 30% BSA solution (BAL62), and complementary animal plasma, serum, IgG, and polyclonal antiserum lines. Endotoxin and sterility specifications (e.g., <2.0 EU/mg for Low Endotoxin BSA, ≤3.0 EU/mg for Diagnostic Grade, 0.2 micron sterile filtration) support use in ELISA/RIA immunoassays, tissue and cell culture, and protein standards. The firm holds US Federal Contractor Registration (SAM) verified vendor status.

Commercially, Equitech-Bio sells direct to customers globally through an e-commerce storefront, toll-free phone sales (+1 800-259-0591), and email-based quote and reserve-sample workflows. Pricing is quote-based across the catalog with no public list prices; a newsletter promotion offers 5% off first orders. The company markets via its website, email, social channels (Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, X), and a November 2025 Bioz Badges integration on its digital catalogs to surface peer-reviewed citation evidence.
