Tissue Array and Tissue Block Service
|
Tissue arrays (also called tissue microarray, or TMA) are one of the best high-throughput methods for simultaneous histological analysis of multiple tissues. Tissue arrays are particularly useful for evaluating biomarkers in clinical studies such as molecular diagnostics in cancer research, in which meaningful size of cancer tissues with matched tissue samples and availability of detailed medical information may be limited.
GenScript offers tissue array and tissue block services for biomarker investigation, providing solutions for tissue collection, tissue paraffin block manufacturing, and tissue array production and analysis. GenScript can quickly identify patient populations for tissue collection and rapidly transform research hypotheses into clinical biomarkers and disease management strategies.
GenScript offers trial slides from pre-made tissue arrays, available with a small fee. |

Key Features:
- Large Network for Tissue Collection: GenScript has established a sophisticated tissue collection network with hospitals, facilitating customized tissue collection for the most common as well as rare tumors and diseases.
- Wide Variety of Tissue Types: GenScript provides a considerable range of healthy, marginal, and tumor tissues including, but not limited to, stomach, liver, breast, prostate, colon, rectum, lung, and pancreatic carcinomas. Every tissue sample is bar-coded immediately upon collection.
- High Tissue Core Density: GenScript offers tissue arrays with up to 500 cores. Core sizes vary from 0.6 to 2.0 mm in diameter. Each tissue array contains tissue samples from normal, marginal or tumor tissues from the same patient and tissue samples from different patients.
- Premium Array Quality: Our tissue cores are arrayed on charged glass slides, coated with thin layer of paraffin to prevent oxidation and enzymatic digestion, and stored at room temperature in a dry place. No adhesive tape is used in labeling or sorting.
- Precise Pathology Diagnosis: Every 10th section of each tissue array is H&E stained and reviewed by two certified pathologists to ensure that pathological diagnoses are correct and match to adjacent serial sections.
- Very Competitive Prices: GenScript manufactures all tissue arrays in-house, allowing us to provide customers with premium services to fit almost any budget.
- Flexible Purchase Options: GenScript offers highly flexible purchase options, from single array to multiple arrays, with or without H&E staining. Bundled services are available for options as well.
