TMA from Human and Animal Tissues

Cureline BioPathology scientists will help you to design and develop a custom tissue microarray (TMA) for target expression, biomarker analysis, and correlative studies on human tissues with clinical outcome. We have an extensive inventory of diseased, adjacent normal and normal human and animal tissues, and will select appropriate specimens for production of a unique TMA for your research. Standard protocol for IHC analysis and/or development of the custom IHC protocol could be implemented at the same time. Through our collaboration with Cureline, a global biospecimens management company, we provide access to high-quality human tissues with clinical outcome data (follow up data).
