BioTek Instruments, Inc. is a privately held Vermont–based manufacturer notable for microplate instrumentation and bio-analytics software for life science. It designs, builds, and sells detection, washing, liquid dispensing and automation products that are compatible with various microplate formats. Microplates, sometimes referred to as Microtiter (microtitre) plates, are typically found in flat or round bottom configurations with multiple wells arranged in a rectangular matrix often made of polystyrene or polypropylene.

They are used by medical and scientific researchers for screening and measurement and numerous other purposes by biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, university science departments, clinics, food manufacturers and nonprofits such as the American Red Cross. According to CEO Briar Alpert, BioTek's instruments help researchers in the life sciences, drug research, and disease analysis to better understand biological processes at the cellular and molecular level.
