QUALITY IS A GIVEN
When you’re part of a team bringing cell therapies to market, access to high-quality human cellular material is critical. You have many options for quality leukopaks for the research phase of allogeneic cell therapy product development, but what happens when it’s time to transition to GMP compliant products for clinical use? Or you need to scale up?
Not only do we have a large, recallable donor pool that can ensure consistency and scale from research into clinical development and manufacturing, we have world-class genomics and flow cytometry labs just down the hall from our collection facilities, enabling fast, sophisticated multi-omic characterization.

Other genomic or flow cytometry characterizations available as add-on services
Your samples are all from healthy, normal donors—how do you define “normal"?
For a donor to qualify as normal, they cannot be currently diagnosed or have a history of cancer, autoimmune disease, or any major comorbidity (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.). Contact us to learn more.
How do you facilitate the transition between RUO and GMP?
Our integrated project management approach facilitates the transition between research and clinical phases. Client-specific donor pools provide premier access and flexibility for GMP and RUO collections.
