Provided Services
All elements of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cell (PBMC) processing following blood collection at clinical locations are managed, from the PBMC isolation and storage to their domestic or international transportation.
PBMC Isolation
Blood samples are collected from study participants at numerous accredited clinical locations. The samples then undergo transportation to the nearest PK4 laboratory for immediate processing. The process includes isolation, counting, and preparation of PBMCs for cryopreservation. Notably, PK4 provides both manual PBMC isolation using density gradient media and magnetic cell separation and isolation techniques.
Cryopreservation and Storage
Each PK4 facility within the network is equipped with advanced storage systems designed to sustain temperatures of -20°C and -80°C, alongside liquid nitrogen storage capabilities. These systems adhere strictly to clinical standards for short-term and prolonged storage, ensuring optimal conditions for samples.
