Human Tissue Bank Overview
|
Phalanx partnerships give our clients access to one of the largest commercial human tissue
banks, providing researchers access to over 600,000 DNA, RNA,
human tissue samples and human serum
samples derived from over 120,000 patients collected from four
continents. |
|
Each day researchers choose from our diverse range of human tissue samples and disease states to meet the needs of their studies.
Our human tissue samples are handled consistently according to
validated protocols used at all of our sites. Each human tissue sample is
snap frozen to preserve mRNA and protein and is matched with unaffected
human tissue, as well as DNA and sera from the donor in most cases. RNA is
subjected to rigorous Quality Control to monitor degradation. Each human
tissue sample is accompanied with:
- Detailed demographic information, family history on 3 generations,
Gold Standard clinical diagnostic information, and drug history
including adverse events.
- Pathology report, H & E slides, and a complete set of phenotypic
data.
- Access to additional samples and longitudinal data are available for
some custom programs.
Choose from our diverse range of human tissues and specific disease
states (Table 1 and 2). If your human tissue sample of interest is not
listed, please inquire as we are
constantly updating our tissue bank.
Biomarker Discovery Services
Once you have chosen from our diverse, annotated sample
repository, we can facilitate your research studies with
our accurate, cost-effective genomic
analysis services. We have years of experience and validated protocols
that will ensure you get accurate results with quick delivery times. If
you have a custom project that you don't see listed under our Services
options, contact us to discuss, as we may be able to accommodate your
needs.
