BIOLOGICAL TARGETS Inc. has products and technologies in the following areas:

  • Insecticide & Drug targets- BTI has been the leader in the study of mechanism of action of cry proteins. BTI has developed unique approaches for target identification and screening of insecticidal compounds. BTI also has identified potential receptors for Bt insecticidal proteins.Currently, our Research team focuses on studying mechanism of action of cry4b protein.
  • Bt-based Biopesticides - BTI has three new strains of Bacillus thuringiensis, which can be used to control a variety of pest insects. One of the strains kills a wide range of pests in three orders of insects: Lepidoptera (moths), Coleoptera (beetles) and Diptera (mosquitoes and black flies) as well as various nematodes. A second strain is highly efficient against three major mosquito vectors, Culex pipiens, Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae.The third strain, isolated in Texas, kills the red imported fire ant.
  • Soil stabilization & Improvement- BTI owns a unique, biologically-based, non-corrosive soil improvement and soil-stabilization agent, RECLAFILâ„¢, which is useful for increasing soil water and nutrient retention and controlling erosion.
  • Bioinformatics - BTI has a highly trained and experienced professional scientific staff that is capable of applying the power of computational biology to build solutions to complex biological and data analysis problems faced by scientists in public and private research institutes, biotechnology companies, and universities. BTI supports the entire spectrum from hands-on partnering to outsourcing entire projects.
  • Water-treatment Technology: Microbially-based 100% organic products for waste water cleanup and general purpose cleaning.
