Amsbio Offers Ready-to-Use Frozen Tissue Arrays
- Posted on 22 September 2009
Amsbio offers a range of frozen tissue arrays for validating the clinical relevance of potential biological targets in diagnostics, therapeutics and the study of new protein markers and genes.
Manufactured using fresh frozen tissue and identified by a board-licensed pathologist, Amsbio arrays are prepared on positively charged glass slides. Since the frozen tissue sections do not go through any fixation procedures, the Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), Ribonucleic Acid (RNA), and protein in the frozen tissue array retain their native characteristics.
Each frozen tissue array can contain up to 40 different normal adult human tissue types with three donors per tissue type. With human antibody validation across 40 tissue simultaneously, there is less labour and cost, and more information can be gained on expression pattern, intensity, and distribution of target proteins.
