biologisches

Biologisches is a German adjective that denotes relation to biology or living organisms. It is used to describe things connected to biological life, such as processes, systems, materials, or research. In standard sentences the ending of the adjective changes with gender, number, and case (for example, das biologische Material; ein biologisches Material). In product labels or signage, the phrase Biologisches Material is commonly seen, indicating material derived from living sources.

In usage, biologisches appears across science, medicine, ecology, and policy discussions. It helps distinguish biological considerations from chemical, physical, or inorganic factors. Common compound forms include biologisches Material (biological material), biologische Systeme (biological systems), and biologische Forschung (biological research). The term also appears in safety and regulatory contexts, where biological aspects of samples, laboratories, or environments are described as requiring specific handling or containment.

In German, biologisches can also function in a nominal sense in some contexts, especially when used with capitalization as a category label, though more typical nouns for the field are Biologie or das Biologische. The term shares its root with related words such as biologisch (the adverbial or adjectival form) and biologische (the feminine or plural form in agreement). Being a cognate of the English biological, biologisches can be found in multilingual scientific writing and in discussions that compare biological with other disciplines.

Overall, biologisches serves as a concise descriptor in German for anything pertaining to biology, the life sciences, or living matter, and it appears frequently in academic, clinical, and regulatory language.
