What biomers.net does

biomers.net GmbH is a privately held German specialty manufacturer headquartered in Ulm that operates a custom oligonucleotide synthesis business serving research and diagnostic customers in 50+ countries. The company's core capability is solid-phase synthesis of DNA, RNA, locked nucleic acid (LNA), and peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligonucleotides, extended by an extensive in-house modification catalog covering fluorescent dyes and quenchers (including proprietary BMN dyes such as the BMN-Q521 reductive cleavable quencher), reactive linkers (amine, thiol/maleimide, carboxyl, aldehyde, CBT/cysteine, photocleavable and photocrosslinkers), click chemistry (CuAAC, copper-free DBCO/TCO/Tetrazine), lipophilic conjugates (cholesterol, DOPE, fatty acids), enzymatic coupling reagents (HaloTag, benzylguanine, sortase-triglycin), and specialty reagents like the Bis-Triazole Azide copper-chelating modifier. Beyond standard research-scale synthesis, biomers.net offers mid-scale XXL DNA synthesis at 10–500 mg and XL/XXL RNA at 5–50 mg with HPLC purification included, plus catalog products such as Random Hexamers, Oligo dT20, Universal Reporters, RNase Substrates, Smart-seq2 oligos, and FLAP probes for smiFISH.

The commercial model is a direct-to-customer e-commerce operation anchored on a proprietary webstore (webstore.biomers.net) that supports online ordering, bulk orders, plate orders, account management, order tracking, and a web invoice portal, with supplemental order intake via email, phone (7 am–7 pm), and fax. Pricing is unit-based per oligonucleotide, quoted ex-works in EUR or GBP, with a 5% Early Bird discount for orders placed between 6:00 and 9:30 am and net-20 payment terms. The company holds both ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications — the latter enabling supply into IVD and medical-device markets — and has launched dedicated COVID-19 diagnostic oligo products. Manufacturing of CuAAC-modified oligos is performed under an inbound license from baseclick GmbH. All products are sold for research use only; the company does not sell to private individuals.
