SHREVEPORT, La.
Bio-Tech Imaging (BTI), based in Frederick, Md., has opened a 33,000-sf production plant in Shreveport. The $15 million facility will produce the company’s “Tagger”AIDS-detection kits. Currently the kits are used for private scientific research. BTI is awaiting FDA approval to extend marketing of the kits to hospitals, doctors, and blood banks. BTI hopes to occupy the plant by early 2002.
