Caltag Medsystems have established agreements to procure both human and animal tissues. We have access to a wide range of human tissues that are obtained via the gift of tissue and organ donation for research advancements in medical science. All tissues are donated in line with the Caltag Medsystems ethical policy. The tissues are available in a fresh or frozen format. Time between collection of sample and delivery is customizable and usually within 24-48 hours. Samples can be selected with specific donor inclusion/exclusion requirements such as age, sex, ethnicity, medical history, specific diseases etc. Diseases that can be specified include autoimmune diseases (for example, arthritis, Crohn’s Disease, diabetes), infectious diseases (HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C among others), haematological cancers (AML, CLL and more) and solid tumor cancers (including breast, cervical, kidney). Each sample is provided with a Certificate of Analysis stating the serology and information about the donor.
