About BEVITAL

A non-profit laboratory with 20+ years of metabolic profiling expertise.

Established in 2003 by researchers from the University of Bergen, BEVITAL translates high-quality, targeted metabolomics data from the lab to real-world research. Operating with strict integrity, we combine high-precision analyses with competitive pricing to empower researchers, clinicians, and industry leaders in health, nutrition, and disease prevention.

Founded by scientists for scientists. Built for peer-reviewed research.

How it works

A structured 8-step process from project consultation to data delivery — designed for optimal sample handling, pre-analytical stability, and minimal sample consumption.

Before analysis

Evaluation

We strongly recommend a project evaluation by email or video call before samples are sent, so you get the most reliable data from your precious biobank samples. Together we go through your research questions, the choice of analytes and panels, sample type and volume, timeline and contract.

Please send us your study design, sample type, number of samples and the timeline you have in mind.

Sample status: still at your site

Transport

Samples are shipped frozen on dry ice by a recommended courier at an agreed time, so they do not thaw or get lost on the way.

Pack and label the samples, send the sample list and let us know the air waybill number. The shipping checklist has the details.

Sample status: with the courier, frozen on dry ice

Storage

On arrival, samples go straight into storage at −80 °C to keep them stable until analysis.

Stability also depends on how samples are handled before shipping. Read more about sample stability.

Sample status: in our freezer at −80 °C

In our laboratory

Preparation

Samples are split into aliquots for the different analytical platforms. Automated liquid handling keeps sample consumption to a minimum.

Sample status: split into aliquots

Analysis

Samples are analyzed on our targeted platforms. Any remaining material goes back into storage at −80 °C.

Let us know whether remaining material should be returned to you or destroyed.

Sample status: on the mass spectrometers

Processing

Mass spectra are processed with our in-house QC software, and results from all platforms are combined in one database.

Data status: results combined in one database

Quality and results

QC

External quality controls from DEKS, DEQAS, KEQAS, ERNDIM and LABQUALITY are included in every sample set. They show how each platform performs and catch assay errors early.

Data status: checked against external controls

Reporting

You receive a detailed lab report with all results, assay performance and the reasons for any missing values. Statistical analysis, from basic to advanced, is available on request.

Data status: report sent to you

"My research group has been using the excellent services of Bevital. Their performance on quality control is superb and provide consistent results on a number of panels of analytes for our research projects. The cost of services is reasonably low and much lower than some of other labs we used. People at Bevital are very responsive and very pleasant to work with. Their services are excellent and the delivery always on time. I have recommended the Bevital services to several of many colleague who ended up using the Bevital service with great satisfaction. I encourage to check out the Bevital's panels of unique analytes which may benefit your research projects."

"I have worked with colleagues at Bevital for many years looking at biomarkers associated with health and potentially cancer in the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study. The scientists at Bevital are great to work with in terms of contributing to study design (selecting which markers to measure) and grant applications, analysing the results and writing these up. They have the expertise to complement our epidemiological skills. Logistically, sending samples from Australia has not caused any issues and the whole process of sending samples and receiving our data has gone smoothly. The costs are fair, especially in a collaborative arrangement where we benefit more from Bevital’s experience and the data can be put to additional use by the Bevital team."
