HBS - Human Biological Samples
To discover mechanisms of disease, to identify novel diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic biomarkers, researchers need thousands of biospecimens. Our company provides the following types of biospecimens for research purposes collected from patients suffering from oncological, hematological, rheumatological/inflammatory, neurological and many other diseases, as well as from healthy subjects.

TISSUE SAMPLES and derivatives
Diseased and adjacent normal tissue samples are available, collected through biopsy procedures or during surgery. Such samples can be processed by standard or customized protocols, to derive biospecimens fitting your research needs.

BIOFLUIDS and derivatives
Human body produces numerous physiological and pathological biofluids that represent key substrates for diagnostics. Thus, researchers worldwide concentrate their efforts on studying various biofluids in both norm and pathology. Samples can be processed by standard or customized protocols, to derive biospecimens fitting your research needs.
Common types of biofluids:
  • Blood
  • Bone marrow aspirate (BMA)
  • Urine
  • Saliva
  • Exudate
  • Ascitic fluid
  • Synovial fluid
  • Wound fluid
Biofluid derivatives:
  • Frozen whole blood
  • Serum
  • Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMC, viable and flash-frozen)
  • Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC, viable and flash-frozen)
  • Buffy coat
  • Blood smears
  • Stabilized blood (in PAXgene tubes)
  • Dried blood spots
  • Flash-frozen bone marrow aspirate (BMA FF)
