Turn complex animal microbiome data into clear and actionable information
Tailored bioinformatics and statistical analysis for animal microbiome datasets-whether you already have sequencing data or need an analysis partner embedded in a larger study or monitoring programme.


Need help with existing data?
Already have sequencing data? We turn raw files into structured, interpretable results-aligned with your study objectives and ready for internal review or external sharing.
Fit-for-purpose statistics
Animal microbiome datasets are complex and easily misinterpreted-especially when influenced by housing, diet, age, batch, or facility effects. We apply methods matched to your study design, so conclusions are robust, defensible, and not overstated.
Analysis as a service
Need analytical support across projects? We build a consistent analysis framework tailored to your portfolio. You receive structured reports plus full underlying outputs-delivered for reuse, comparison, and documentation.
Where animal microbiome projects lose their value
Microbiome sequencing is widely accessible. But many teams find that the value they expected from animal microbiome projects doesn't fully materialise.
The bottleneck is rarely the sequencing itself-it's turning the data into results that are robust, comparable, and clearly communicated-especially in animal studies where variation can come from housing, feed, litter, pen/cage effects, facility differences, handling, and time.
Without the right analytical structure, microbiome data can add complexity rather than clarity.
Many teams get stuck in one of these places:
- Too many features and too little structure (tables that are hard to interpret or defend)
- Methods that don't match the design (leading to unclear or misleading conclusions)
- Facility and batch effects not handled properly (masking or mimicking treatment effects)
- Results that can't be reused (figures and tables not packaged for internal reporting or cross-study comparison)
Biomcare solves this by combining tailored pipelines with fit-for-purpose statistics and a reporting structure built for real-world use-so your data supports study decisions, portfolio discussions, and external communication, not just technical review.
Who this is for
Manufacturers (animal nutrition, feed additives, treatments, animal care)
You need credible, traceable analysis outputs to support decisions, documentation, and partner communication- without hiring a bioinformatics team. When product claims, scale decisions, or commercial positioning depend on microbiome data, independent and defensible analysis reduces uncertainty and internal friction.
CROs, advisors, and service providers running in-vivo studies
You manage multi-site or multi-batch programmes and need consistent analysis across many samples, with outputs clients can understand and reuse. Objective, structured analysis strengthens client confidence and reduces disputes around interpretation.
Preclinical and in-vivo study teams (animal models)
You need analysis that accounts for cage/room/facility effects, time, and study constraints-so microbiome results are interpretable and comparable across experiments. Robust handling of biological and facility-driven variation helps avoid false positives, overstated effects, and misdirected development effort.
How it works
Scope & data intake
We align on decision questions, study design, and metadata (species, diet, housing, site/facility, cohort/batch, timepoints, treatments). If you already have data, we review formats and QC requirements.
Processing & profiling
We process raw data (amplicon or shotgun) or work from your existing feature tables-using pipelines adapted to sample type and goal.
Statistics & comparison framework
We run the analyses needed to answer your questions (e.g., diversity, community shifts, differential abundance, multivariate models, confounder handling, responder analysis where relevant).
Reporting & handover
You receive a structured report plus reusable figures/tables, with a clear explanation of what was tested, what was controlled for, and what the results mean in the context of your design.
What you get
Core outputs (typical)
QC summaries and data readiness checks Microbial composition and diversity summaries Group comparisons and effect estimates aligned to your design Key drivers / multivariate patterns (when relevant) Facility/batch/cage/pen-aware comparison outputs when needed Reusable figures and tables packaged for internal slides and documents
Full data ownership
You own your data - always. Raw sequencing files, processed data, feature tables, figures, and protocol details are all delivered to your secure project workspace, ready for reuse and documentation.
How our clients use this service
You have shotgun or amplicon data and need analysis + statistics to compare treatments, timepoints, or cohorts
You run a sequencing facility (in-house or partner wet lab) but need to outsource bioinformatics and biostatistics
You want to standardize analysis across a multi-site livestock programme (consistent outputs each round)
You need to monitor and explain inter-facility differences (e.g., animals moved between barns, houses, or research facilities)
You need to track pen/cage effects and reduce "hidden variation" that undermines study conclusions
You work with multiple species (e.g., pig + poultry, or mouse + pig) and need comparable analysis frameworks
You need a clean set of figures/tables for internal reporting or partner sharing
You're running a broader in-vivo programme and want Biomcare to deliver the analytics layer end-to-end
Why Biomcare
Many pipelines can generate outputs. What matters is whether the analysis reflects your study design, whether facility and batch effects are handled correctly, and whether the results are structured for real decisions-not just statistical completeness.
Design-aligned pipelines
Built and maintained in-house, adapted to animal sample types, housing structures, and study objectives
Fit-for-purpose biostatistics
Methods matched to your experimental design-so conclusions are robust, defensible, and not distorted by cage, room, batch, or facility effects
Structured, reusable reporting
Clear organisation, individual figure files, and outputs packaged for internal review, partner communication, and cross-study comparison
Independent analytical perspective
Objective interpretation that strengthens credibility across teams and in external discussions
Ongoing sparring when needed
Direct access to specialists-not just file delivery
