Special Collection of Human Tissue, Biofluids and
Total RNA from Oncology Cases

For a limited time Asterand is offering an extensive collection of well characterized single donor aliquots of biofluids, total RNA and tissue from human tumor cases at very attractive pricing.

The collection consist of specimens from more than 30 cancer types (including associated adjacent normals for the total RNA and tissue collections). It meets the same high standards that you have come to expect from Asterand's XpressBANKTM offering:

  • Robust and standardized collection methods for tissue and biofluids
  • Consistent procedures for RNA extraction from the highest quality specimens
  • Diagnosis and tumor purity confirmed by board certified pathologists
  • Agilent RIN scores available for all frozen material and a minimum score of 6.0 (at the time of isolation) for all total RNA aliquots

Our robust collection, quality control and extensive donor clinical data allows customers to achieve:

  • Less experimental failure due to the use of poor quality or inappropriate specimens
  • Faster results-pre-qualified specimens and off the shelf aliquots save you time and effort
  • More definitive research conclusions-in-depth clinical annotation improves understanding of experiment results

We encourage you to act promptly as we expect that there will be high demand for this collection.
