Our collaboration with Vitas is a key factor in our business model and we couldn’t be happier with the near flawless services they provide us on a daily basis.

Vitas was an analytical partner in multiple large-scale EU-funded studies, where they performed the huge task of analysing several nutritional biomarkers in tens of thousands of blood samples. 

Results were always delivered on time with excellent consistency across the batches.

The resulting data have been key in a number of important publications in BMJ, Nature Communications, and the Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology.

It was a pleasure working with Vitas - I highly recommend them!

I still remember: In 2010 we met as a group of molecular nutrition scientists to shape the “Nutrition Researcher Cohort”, experimenting on ourselves, and Thomas was willing to provide Vitas analytical and diagnostic expertise.

Vitas has come a long way since then, surpassing one million specialized and miniaturized analyses, and well on its way to two million. Still vigorously critical on science and analytics, there is a bright future ahead.
