Biomarker discovery begins with the Global Repository® Sample Bank

BioServe's Global Repository® through our acquisition of Genomics Collaborative (GC) is one of the largest commercial human tissue banks, providing researchers access to over 600,000 DNA, RNA, human tissue samples and human serum samples derived from over 120,000 patients collected from four continents. Each day researchers choose from our diverse range of human tissue samples and disease states to meet the needs of their studies.

Our human tissue samples are handled consistently according to validated protocols used at all of our sites. Each human tissue sample is snap frozen to preserve mRNA and protein and is matched with unaffected human tissue, as well as DNA and sera from the donor in most cases. RNA is subjected to rigorous Quality Control to monitor degradation. Each human tissue sample is accompanied with:

• Detailed demographic information, family history on 3 generations, Gold Standard clinical diagnostic information, and drug history including adverse events.
• Pathology report, H & E slides, and a complete set of phenotypic data.
• Access to additional samples and longitudinal data are available for some custom programs.

Choose from our diverse range of human tissues and specific disease states (Table 1 and 2). If your human tissue sample of interest is not listed, please inquire at samples@bioserve.com as we are constantly updating our tissue bank.
