Biorepository / Biobank Overview

The PrecisionMed regulatory-compliant and privacy protected biorepository consists of CSF, CSF Pellets, DNA/EDTA blood, PAXGene, serum, plasma, PBMCs and urine samples collected under PrecisionMed IRB approved clinical protocols. Collections are from diseased and matched normal control populations, with detailed clinical data corresponding to each donor visit. Samples are provided to our customers free of commercial incumbency and all samples are appropriately consented. The PrecisionMed biorepository is the largest private global source of longitudinally collected Human Cerebrospinal Fluid from living normal and diseased populations.

Biofluid samples are available as non-pooled 1ml aliquots from individual donors. Each sample is accompanied by audited, accurate, detailed clinical information. Samples are shipped immediately.

PrecisionMed has a strong collaboration with one of the world’s largest tissue banks in Western Europe. Through this partnership we have access to a wide variety of accurately annotated tissue samples as well as the ability to undertake prospective tissue collections.

Diseased/tumor and adjacent normal tissues from a single donor are available in formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) and/or snap frozen formats. Various combinations of tissue are available including matched tissue/biofluid sets.

PrecisionMed is skilled in performing custom, prospective sample collections. These collections are available in almost any indication. Contact us to discuss you requirements. Please call 858 847-0117 ext.215 and ask for John Flax MD or complete the contact form or email John Flax directly.
