Blood Separation
CIGMR Biobank can provide a blood separation service. Plasma and/or serum are separated from whole blood using our ISO 9001:2008 certified standard operating procedures in a Class II environment.
The processed sample is aliquotted into storage volumes which are appropriate for downstream analysis; we aim to store aliquots which are accessed only once for analysis thus minimising freezer thaw cycles and maintaining the integrity of analytes.
