The team behind The Sample Network has created one of the largest virtual biobanks globally, with clinical networks stretching across the globe. Ensuring that we will be able to identify and acquire samples that support your research where others can not.
These biobanks and clinical sites have been rigorously assessed for quality, ethical standards and ability to deliver. In addition, our specific local knowledge of the UK research environment, regulations and logistic partners ensure rapid and reliable delivery.
We are able to access a wide range of biospecimen types, including but not limited to:
Human tissue — fresh, frozen, fixed or processed
Human blood (peripheral or umbilical cord) and blood byproducts (serum, plasma, buffy coat)
All human biofluids (sputum, urine, bile, lavage, faeces, CSF)
This also extends to disease cohorts, including but not limited to:
Neurology
CNS
Oncology,
Cardiovascular
Infectious disease (inc. COVID)
Metabolic
Gastroenterology
