About us

It is our vision that everyone can become aware of the connections between health and lifestyle to better understand what makes a life well-lived. It is our conviction that metabolic phenotyping is key to preventing disease, maintaining well-being and improving the quality of life.

With a pioneering spirit and game-changing thinking, biocrates delivers excellent solutions and paves the way for individual health and well-being. 

Who we are?

biocrates is the global leader in mass spectrometry-based quantitative metabolite analysis, with kits and assays covering over 1,000+ metabolites from more than 40 metabolite classes. Our platform combines innovative technology for sample preparation, metabolite identification, and data analysis.

The use of quantitative, standardized, and quality-controlled metabolomics methods guarantees robust and reproducible results that are the cornerstones of all clinical research.

From just a few microliters of sample material, we can uncover the entire phenotype of an individual and answer a host of questions about systems biology.
