BioDOE: Design Smarter Biological Experiments, Accelerate Discovery Faster.

Stop guessing with wasteful One-Factor-at-a-Time (OFAT) trials. BioDOE provides an intuitive 3-Panel Design Studio for assays, bioprocessing, formulations, and multi-response surface optimization without requiring a PhD in statistics.

Built for Biological Complexity

From high-throughput screening and formulation buffers to equipment constraints in bioprocessing suites.

1. Biological Factor Setup

Specify 2-level continuous ranges (pH, Substrate Concentration) and discrete multi-option choices (Media Types, Enzyme Strains, Buffer Components).

Explore Factor Setup

2. Hard-to-Change Factors

Flag settings that are slow or expensive to change — like incubation temperature or which bioreactor vessel you're using — so the design groups runs together instead of resetting equipment between every single run.

Explore Hard-to-Change Support

3. Balance Competing Goals

Automatically finds the best settings when your goals pull in different directions — for example, maximizing yield while minimizing impurity — instead of you weighing the tradeoffs by hand.

Accelerating Discovery Across Every Assay & Bioprocess

Whether optimizing CHO cell culture, Immunoassay Development (ELISA & Potency Assays), or formulation stability, BioDOE reduces experimental runs by up to 75%.

CHO Cell Culture Media Optimization

Simultaneously evaluate Glucose, Amino Acid Feeds, and Temperature Shift timing to boost monoclonal antibody titers while maintaining 95%+ cell viability.

Bioprocess Case Study
Assay Developers

Immunoassay & Bioassay Development

Optimize ELISA, HTRF, and Cell-Based Potency Assays. Simultaneously screen antibody coating levels, detection conjugate dilutions, blocking agents, and incubation times to maximize signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio and dynamic range.

Immunoassay Optimization

Recombinant Protein & Enzyme Expression

Screen induction timing, IPTG/Methanol concentration, and Dissolved Oxygen levels. Account for hard-to-change incubator temps via Split-Plot designs.

Expression Workflow

Assay Buffer & Formulation Stability

Formulate high-stability biologics. Optimize pH, ionic strength, surfactants, and cryoprotectants to prevent aggregation through freeze-thaw cycles.

Formulation Matrix

Gene Therapy & Viral Vector Transfection

Optimize AAV or Lentivirus production by balancing plasmid ratios, transfection reagent concentrations, and harvest timing for maximum viral titer.

Dr. Alisha Patel

"BioDOE transformed our CHO cell culture media optimization. In just 12 runs, we identified critical Glucose and Temperature interactions that we had spent 6 months trying to find with traditional OFAT experiments. A total game-changer for bioprocess development."

Ready to Transform Your Biological Optimization?

Join leading life scientists, bioprocess engineers, and biotech researchers using BioDOE to design, execute, and optimize multi-factor experiments in minutes.

1. Define Factors & Responses

What are you trying to do?

Screening uses a small fractional-factorial design (Resolution IV) to isolate the vital few factors cheaply.

Biological factors
Factor Name Values / Range
Add New Biological Factor
Numerical DOE uses Low & High boundaries.
+ Add Factor
Measured Responses

Responses are added after you generate your design — see the "2 · Design of Experiment" tab.

Group Your Runs (optional)

If some runs will happen on a different day, batch, or plate than others, name that here so the analysis can account for it separately from your real factors.

Reliability Check (optional)

Tell us how noisy your assay normally is and how small a change still matters, and we'll check whether this design has enough runs to actually detect it.

1

Define Biological Factors & Responses

Add numerical factors (e.g. Glucose [5–25 g/L], Temperature [33–37 °C]) or categorical variables (e.g. Feed Strategy A vs B).

Bioreactor Constraints: Mark Temperature as Hard to Change to automatically generate a cost-effective Split-Plot design!
2

Generate Design Matrix (Screening vs Characterization)

  • Fractional Factorial / Screening: Reduces 32 runs down to 8 or 12 runs to quickly screen out inactive media components.
  • Characterization (Center Points): Adds replicate center runs to test for non-linear curvature in your assay response.
