Company description

biocrates is a life sciences company with more than 20 years of experience delivering quantitative, standardized, and reproducible mass spectrometry-based metabolomics solutions. The company provides ready-to-measure kits, innovative software, and comprehensive services that enable scientists in pharma, academia, and health institutions to establish and scale metabolomics workflows within days. biocrates has built a global community of more than 100 core facilities, contract research organizations (CROs), service customers, and kit users, all working to accelerate science through quantitative metabolomics.

As of 2025, biocrates has become part of the Biognosys Group, which delivers high-performance, robust solutions across proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics. Building on the combined strengths of PreOmics, Biognosys, and biocrates, the Biognosys Group integrates industry-leading consumables, software, instruments, and CRO services to make advanced mass spectrometry workflows seamless, scalable, and accessible to every laboratory. The group maintains a vendor-neutral strategy, ensuring open and flexible collaboration across the scientific community and broad compatibility across major mass spectrometry platforms.
