In the ever-changing world of pharmaceutical research and development, the search for novel therapeutics hinges on the efficient utilization of biological samples. Without good quality samples with maintained integrity, there can be no accurate or reproducible data to be scrutinized by governing bodies such as the Food and Drug administration (FDA). As a leading provider […]

Introduction to Functional Quality Control
Functional Quality Control: What is it and why do we do it? This blog aims to answer these two questions to introduce our Functional Quality Control (FQC) testing performed in our Global Integrated Analytical Biorepository (GIAB) to assess sample quality and validate subject identity. What is FQC Testing? In order to mitigate unforeseen errors during […]
5 reasons why researchers are choosing to outsource CRISPR gene editing
In recent years, CRISPR-Cas9 has emerged as a revolutionary gene-editing tool that has transformed the field of precision medicine, since it offers researchers a relatively inexpensive means to edit the DNA of a cell with precision and ease.
Temperature Controlled Sample Storage for Research
Temperature controlled sample storage is a crucial aspect of modern research and biotechnology. Whether it’s storing biological samples, chemicals, or other research materials, it’s essential to maintain stable temperatures to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the samples. In this blog post, we’ll explore the importance of temperature-controlled sample storage for research and the different […]
What is PBMC Isolation?
Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell Isolation (PBMC Isolation) is a process used to separate the cells in a sample of peripheral blood into two distinct populations: mononuclear cells and other cells. Mononuclear cells are a type of white blood cell, and they are responsible for fighting off infections. The other cells in the sample can include […]
What is RNA Extraction?
RNA extraction is a critical process in molecular biology, genetics, and medicine, which involves isolating and purifying RNA from biological samples such as cells or tissues.
