COVID-19 samples for research

Scientists and researchers from across the globe are working hard to develop tests, treatments, and vaccines for COVID-19. The team at Tissue Solutions remains committed to helping support scientists’ vital research into COVID-19.

They have been working closely with their sources and collection sites to ensure the safe and ethical collection of COVID-19 samples, as well as increasing sample availability by processing whole blood into plasma and serum samples.

They can now provide a broader range of COVID-19 positive and negative samples from hospitalized donors, remnant specimens, or collection sites:

• Cryopreserved plasma, serum, and PBMCs from positive and convalescent donors
• Fresh whole blood from positive donors
• RNA extracted from nasal and throat swabs from positive donors
• Diagnostic remnants from positive and negative donors
• Stool samples from positive donors
• Nasopharyngeal (NP) swabs from positive and negative donors
• Saliva collections from positive donors
• Serial collections – 4 times points (matched serum, NP swab, DBS, saliva)
• Post-mortem tissue from positive donors
