Characterise baseline microbiome conditions across sites and time points - so biological noise doesn't compromise your trial conclusions.
Prove Microbiome Outcomes
Demonstrate that your product increases microbial diversity, preserves community structure, or drives the functional changes your claims depend on.
From Sampling to Insight - Fully Managed
We handle everything: study design, sampling protocols, sequencing, data processing and custom reporting. You get results you can act on and defend.
What's Missing From Most Field Trial Programmes
Field trials are expensive and take time. But without microbiome data, you're missing a critical layer of biological evidence - and increasingly, your customers, regulators, and distribution partners are asking for it.
Most organisations running field trials lack the internal capability to design microbiome studies correctly, process sequencing data at scale, or interpret results in an agronomic context. Bolting on a poorly designed microbiome component after the fact produces data that can't support decisions or claims.
Biomcare exists to close that gap - as a dedicated partner embedded in your trial from the start.
Who this is for
Manufacturers of biological and agrochemical inputs
You're running field trials to validate product efficacy. Whether microbiome impact is a primary endpoint, a secondary claim, or a quality control measure, we give you the data infrastructure to include it properly.
Agri-advisors and consultancies
You're managing trials on behalf of clients and need a credible, publication-ready microbiome component. We integrate seamlessly with your existing trial design and deliver results in formats your clients understand.
Research-led organisations and field trial networks
You're conducting multi-site, multi-treatment trials and need consistent, comparable microbiome data across locations and time points. We build the methodology that holds across your entire programme.
How it works
Study Design Consultation
We work with you before sampling begins. We assess your trial objectives, treatments, site variability, and endpoints - then design a microbiome sampling strategy that integrates cleanly with your existing trial plan.
Sampling & Laboratory Analysis
Soil and plant samples are processed using state-of-the-art sequencing technologies. Our laboratory protocols are robust, reproducible, and appropriate to the biological matrix and study question.
Data Processing & Bioinformatics
All sequencing data is processed in-house using our bioinformatics pipeline. Taxonomic profiling, diversity metrics, functional inference, and statistical analysis are all handled by our expert team - no outsourcing, no black boxes.
Custom Reporting & Expert Interpretation
You receive a tailored report structured around your trial objectives, not a generic output. Our scientists walk you through the findings and are available to support downstream use - presentations, regulatory dossiers, publications.
What you get
Baseline & temporal microbiome profiles
Characterisation of soil microbial community composition and structure at each time point and site - the foundation for understanding biological variation across your trial.
Diversity & richness analysis
Alpha and beta diversity metrics that quantify how treatments affect the breadth and distribution of microbial communities.
Functional microbiome profiling
Insight into the functional capacities of the microbiome - nutrient cycling, biocontrol activity, stress response pathways - mapped to your trial treatments and outcomes.
Site comparison & treatment differentiation
Statistical analysis that separates treatment effects from site-to-site variation, giving you defensible conclusions even across heterogeneous field conditions.
Custom report, designed around your objectives
Every deliverable is built to answer your specific trial questions - ready for internal review, partner sharing, or external reporting.
Expert consultation throughout
Our scientists are not just analysts. We engage as collaborators: available for study design questions, mid-trial queries, and post-report interpretation support.
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
Product safety validation
Validating that products do not negatively alter native soil microbiome structure
Biocontrol efficacy
Measuring shifts in pathogen-suppressive microbial populations following application
Microbiome recovery
Demonstrating microbiome recovery following agrochemical treatment
Multi-site field programmes
Adding a microbiome dimension to multi-site, multi-year field programmes
Baseline benchmarking
Generating consistent baseline data across farms to control for site variability
Why Biomcare
Microbiome analysis looks straightforward until you try to do it rigorously. Sequencing technology is accessible - but study design, appropriate controls, data processing, and agronomically meaningful interpretation are not. That's where most providers fall short.
Biomcare is built around scientific depth. We bring expertise in microbial ecology, bioinformatics, and agronomy to every project - not as separate disciplines, but as an integrated service. We work with you from before the first sample is taken to after the final report is delivered.
State-of-the-art sequencing technology
High-resolution profiling that captures the full complexity of soil and plant-associated microbiomes.
End-to-end project management
One point of contact, full accountability, no gaps between sampling and results.
Custom outputs
Reports written for your audience, your objectives, and your downstream use case.
Scientific credibility
Results that hold up to scrutiny from customers, partners, and regulators.
