  • Meet Somark
  • Why Somark?
  • Who we support?

Based on years of research, development, and testing, Somark provides a range of products and technology applications to create unique animal identities, enhancing the accuracy of record-keeping in pre-clinical trials and research studies.

Somark offers Labstamp® and Digitail™ Tag with a range of applications for integration within existing laboratory systems, or as a standalone Somark technology ecosystem.

Unique rodent identification is created through either a distinct tail tattoo (Labstamp®) or a RFID tag which is easily inserted into rodents’ tails just beneath the skin (Digitail™ Tag). Animals with the RFID tag can be easily scanned with a range of scanners, delivering automatic, instant integration of the animal ID into your systems. The RFID tail tags are a part of our Digitail™ Tag solution, linking the laboratory animal with your research data and colony management systems.

Somark have focused on understanding our customers’ needs for accurate and efficient animal identification for over 10 years. We have continually refined and improved our solutions to ensure we deliver the benefits pre-clinical researchers and animal technicians need to achieve excellent results.

We understand your problems and know how to solve them and how to deliver results affordably with easy implementation. Our animal identification solutions do not require any pre-existing knowledge or skill sets – we can train any of your staff in minutes and ensure they are confidently able to provide reliable animal identification for all your studies.

Our solutions have been approved for use across over 300+ organizations, globally, so we can reliably and confidently support you, if you are a startup lab or a global Pharma / CRO.

Somark’s animal identification solutions were designed to solve the common problems found with existing identification methods for mice and rats.

For the researcher, our Labstamp tail tattoos and Digitail Tags ensure accurate, reliable, unique identification of your lab animals and, therefore, data integrity in your study data.

The speed and ease of reading Somark IDs saves time and money, ensuring your budgets and funding goes further. Facility managers and animal technicians love using Somark’s solutions because they are quick to learn and implement and make their jobs easier and more efficient.

Veterinary staff recommend Labstamp and Digitail Tags because our methods of identification improve animal welfare by reducing pain and stress commonly associated with ear notches, ear tags and old fashioned glass transponder implantation.
