Bruker Applied MS Unveils Strategic Innovations at ASMS 2025, Showcasing Advances in DART Technology for TDM and DoA Analysis and Launching timsMetabo™ for PFAS and Environmental Contaminant Detection
BILLERICA, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Bruker Corporation (NASDAQ: BRKR) today announced that its Applied Mass Spectrometry (Applied MS) division will present a powerful lineup of innovations at the 73rd American Society for Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) Conference, taking place June 1–5, 2025, in Baltimore, Maryland. These developments reflect Bruker's continued investment in applied markets, particularly in therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), drugs of abuse (DoA) analysis and environmental analysis. Bruker Applied MS will showcase two significant innovations: the integration of RECIPE's ClinMass ® and ClinDART ® assay kits with Bruker's EVOQ ® DART-TQ⁺ system for TDM and DoA applications, and the launch of the new timsMetabo™ platform for advanced small molecule analysis. These developments support Bruker's goal of delivering practical, high-performance solutions for routine analytical challenges. Bruker's recent majority investment in RECIPE, a renowned manufacturer of diagnostic assays for small molecule analysis used with triple quadrupole mass spectrometers, marks an important step in expanding its capabilities in TDM and DoA analysis. Since the acquisition, Bruker and RECIPE have collaborated to verify the IVDR certified ClinMASS ® kits for use on the EVOQ DART-TQ⁺ system, initially targeting high-priority compound classes. They are not US-FDA approved, but single compounds as controls and calibrators may be a basis in LDT approaches. In parallel, the companies are preparing the launch of RECIPE's ClinDART ® kits, which are designed as high-throughput, chromatography-free assays for the EVOQ DART-TQ⁺ system. These kits enable rapid, cost-efficient analysis with highly reduced solvent consumption, ease of use and increased lab productivity. All ClinDART ® protocols are currently designated for Research Use Only (RUO). Meanwhile, the newly introduced timsMetabo™ platform represents a leap forward in small molecule analysis. Built on Bruker's proprietary trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS) and enhanced with Mobility Range Enhancement (MoRE) and the Athena Ion Processor (AIP), timsMetabo™ delivers high sensitivity and selectivity for PFAS detection. In early studies, timsMetabo™ identified 40% more low-mass molecules in water samples compared to previous-generation systems. This innovation supports both regulatory compliance and proactive environmental monitoring, with promising applications in toxicology and forensic science. 'The integration of RECIPE's assay expertise with Bruker's DART triple quad instrumentation is a significant advancement for therapeutic drug monitoring,' said Dr. Gernot Wolfram, Managing Director of RECIPE. 'It represents a promising concept with the potential to enable laboratories to adopt high-throughput, chromatography-free workflows that are efficient, robust, and more sustainable. These could dramatically enhance overall lab productivity and make mass spectrometry more accessible and impactful in routine clinical settings.' 'ASMS 2025 marks an important milestone for Bruker Applied MS,' said Jeffrey Zonderman, Senior Vice President of Bruker Applied Mass Spectrometry. 'With the launch of timsMetabo™ and the strategic integration of RECIPE, we are not only expanding our technology portfolio but also redefining what's possible in applied markets. These innovations reflect our commitment to solving real-world analytical challenges in TDM and environmental analysis.' Looking ahead, Bruker Applied MS will continue to develop solutions for PFAS, forensic toxicology, and therapeutic drug monitoring. The timsMetabo™ platform is expected to support future applications involving low-mass drug metabolites and emerging contaminants, while RECIPE's assay pipeline will further enhance Bruker's applied market offerings.

Bruker Announces Majority Acquisition of RECIPE, a Leading Provider of Mass Spectrometry-based Diagnostic Assay Kits for Therapeutic Drug Monitoring
Bruker and RECIPE are pioneering the high-throughput 'chrom-free' ClinDART triple-quad MS platform for robust and cost-effective therapeutic drug monitoring assays MUNICH, April 16, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bruker Corporation (NASDAQ: BRKR) today announced a majority investment in RECIPE Chemicals + Instruments GmbH, based in Munich, Germany. RECIPE is a leading European provider of vendor-agnostic therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and other clinical in vitro diagnostic kits for LC-MS/MS, HPLC, and ICP-MS assays. Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed. RECIPE has over 60 employees and continues to operate under the leadership of Managing Director Dr. Gernot Wolfram. With more than 40 years of experience, RECIPE is a highly respected, profitable company with 2024 revenues of more than fifteen million dollars. The majority investment and strategic collaboration immediately enhances Bruker's capabilities in small molecule clinical diagnostic assays with RECIPE's ClinMASS® kits for Bruker's EVOQ® liquid chromatography triple-quadrupole mass spectrometers, as well as for LC-TQ-MS systems by other vendors. In addition, the companies are preparing the introduction of high-throughput, chromatography-free ('chrom-free') RECIPE ClinDART® kits running on flexible EVOQ-DART TQ⁺ systems that can easily switch between established LC-TQ-MS methods, and the novel high-throughput ClinDART workflows. In chrom-free mode, the EVOQ-DART TQ⁺ offers higher throughput for multiplex assays without chromatography, while maintaining outstanding sensitivity and quantitation with triple-quad MS selectivity and multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) capabilities. The ClinDART® platform also improves sustainability with a 95% reduction in solvent use, lower cost, and increased laboratory productivity. ClinDART® is complementary to RECIPE's ClinMASS LC-TQ assay portfolio and is expected to set new standards for high-throughput therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), drugs of abuse screening, and other applications. "Bruker's majority investment in RECIPE and our planned joint introduction of high-throughput ClinDART® assays represents a significant advancement in clinical mass spectrometry," said Dr. Gernot Wolfram, Managing Director at RECIPE. "Our unique collaboration on chrom-free, triple-quad TDM assays will allow RECIPE to provide clinical laboratories with a powerful new tool that complements our well-regarded ClinMASS® workflows on the EVOQ-DART TQ⁺. The additional high-throughput ClinDART methods reduce operating costs, and accelerate time-to-market for newly developed clinical diagnostics and multiplexed drugs of abuse screening assays." Jeffrey Zonderman, Senior Vice President of Bruker Applied Mass Spectrometry, added: "We are excited to welcome RECIPE to the Bruker family. This majority investment aligns with our strategic vision for LC-TQ-MS assays, enhanced with novel chrom-free assays based on our proprietary DART® technology to lead in clinical research and regulated TDM markets. The RECIPE ClinMASS and novel ClinDART® assays, combined with LC or chrom-free EVOQ DART-TQ⁺ methods, are expected to offer unparalleled flexibility, throughput and cost-effectiveness." Juergen Srega, Bruker CALID Group President, commented: "With the increasing importance of triple-quadrupole-based small molecule clinical diagnostics, our strategic collaboration with RECIPE is a pivotal step to democratize fast, efficient and sensitive assays for TDM, drugs of abuse screening and other clinical assays on a high-throughput, chrom-free TQ-MS platform."
