Cellular Services

Unlike other companies, we believe in tailoring our services to best fit your needs and we pride ourselves on this flexibility to deliver on as many different services as possible.

Below is a summary and description for each of the cellular services we offer, if you do not see a cellular service you wish to query, please click here to contact us as we are always willing to discuss providing new services that are not routinely performed.

Transforming lymphocyte cell lines

Sampled is an industry leader in transformation of lymphocytes with a transformation rate above 98%. Over the course of the last two decades, we have transformed approximately 500,00 cell lines, in turn creating approximately 2.5 million aliquots of cells. Moreover, many of the cell lines that we transformed over twenty years ago are still viable and in use today. Along with transformation, we also provide cryopreservation and distribution services for clients who wish to send samples domestically or internationally.

PBMC isolation

We offer a plethora of custom aliquot options to clients with large or small demands to isolate PBMCs based on:

• Concentration of white blood cells per ml
• Volume required per aliquot
• Number of aliquots required
• Further bioprocessing/isolation of constituent components

Our labs create up to 4000 aliquots a month for clients with high demands and average 1200 subjects per month, comprised of multiple vacutainers. We possess workflows for a variety of vacutainer types including EDTA, heparin, ACD and many more. Additionally, Sampled offers cryopreservation and distribution options too.

Plasma and serum isolation

Custom aliquots whereby volume per sample and number of samples can be tailored upon request. Additionally, we can cryopreserve and distribute aliquots if necessary.

Cell line expansion

We are able to expand almost any cell line including cancer cells, immortalised cells and primary cells. Additionally, we can cryopreserve and distribute aliquots if necessary.

For all cell aliquot cryopreservation services, the freezing process is conducted by a controlled rate freezer to ensure highest viability of cells upon thawing. The control the rate of freezing (i.e. the rate at which the sample cools) can be customized upon request
