I'm doing kit manufacturing and will be glad to help with methods,
but I'm a hardware engineer -- unschooled in bio, so it will be
business and manufacturing methods I can help with. Formulating,
packaging and distributing some of the supplies seems like a good business
also, unless you are aiming at the lowest of the low prices and then
it seems like trying to operate a grocery store for diybiologists
and needs big warehouse and inventory taxes. If you're talking
formulations that have low cost ingredients that need only milligrams
to be useful, I'm all for it. Prepackaged 15 ml sterile
culture media tubes with FDA approvals - no thanks. I've seen the
amounts of steam that takes.
