A Leading Provider of Tumor Tissue for Scientific Discovery

If your responsibly lies in the procurement of tumor tissue at any of the larger pharmaceutical companies or in similar position in medical research centers at the university and teaching hospital level, our product, tumor tissue will have value to your organization.

The same can be said to those who are involved in similar positions with Biotech companies and Contract Research Organizations (CRO) who depend on an having an available supply of high quality tumor tissue at their disposal for further study and experimentation. It is essential that the tissue meet certain standards set by the group to insure an accurate assessment of the sample in a controlled environment. Our company has the capability to provide all required quantities of tumor tissue including matched sets of normal and diseased tissue.

We pride ourselves in our ability to supply your needs in a timely manner that will satisfy your budget demands. Our assortment includes tumor tissues sample of genomic, proteomic, molecular, and histologic, suitable for various methods of analysis.

Our samples are harvested and instantly snap frozen to guaranty the integrity of the samples. The entire process, from donor to placement in contaminant free containers occurs in less than 20 minutes, after which the specimens are stored and monitored in liquid nitrogen and kept at -180 degrees.

ILSbio, LLC was established over 15 years ago. The company has devoted its efforts to providing documented bio specimens and support to encourage scientific discovery from the lab to clinical a practice responsibly, innovatively and as quickly as the process allows.  The last decade has shown great results in the goal of finding more for cancer cures.

The next decade due to the increasing cancer awareness of the public will bring even more emphasis on research to find those cures. More funds will be directed towards the cause and the demand for products such as Tumor tissue will increase dramatically. Your organization can be on the front lines of the movement. The tumor tissue ILSbio can supply can put your organization one step closer to being an even important part of the movement.

In addition to providing tumor samples, ILSbio, LLC, offers a wide range of custom services designed to meet all of your research needs. Many of these services can help reduce your in house costs of operation. If your facility is faced with manpower cuts and financial shortcomings, the services we provide can offer relief.  Your department heads and financial officers may have an interest in that phase of our service.
In addition to our tumor tissue service, we can provide your organization with highly rated samples of:

Use of Human Tissue Can Influence Growth of Medical Science

When it comes to the study of the human body, how new medications affect it and how potentially new procedures might help it is research that is not done directly on live humans. Animal testing is becoming less and less the norm, and even so, it is not possible to allow a product to be released simply on animal testing. Due to all of this, the only real option for testing and progressing medical science is human tissue banks. These tissue banks are used by individuals, companies, and universities from all across the globe. This is because specific kinds of tissue are maintained for study and future usage, allowing individuals to maintain their own genetic material all the way to professors looking to utilize government grants for study and research. Regardless of the reasoning and what is behind the process, human tissue banks are essential in the growth and development of medication, new technology and new techniques, all designed to improve the capability of humans living longer and healthier lives.

Individual Usage
Individuals are not the most common groups of people using a tissue bank. These individuals typically do so for very specific reasons, in order to prolong their lives in case of emergency. Many of these individuals are born with genetic mutations, critical health conditions or rare blood types, so finding donors or the necessary genetic material for their bodies becomes extremely difficult, especially if they are in a limited time window. People who fit into these categories often have items stored inside of a human tissue bank. This ranges anywhere from the umbilical cord or placenta after birth, all the way to their blood or other tissue elements. This allows they to contact the human tissue bank in the event of an emergency and have the material delivered to a hospital for utilization.

Research
The primary usage of human tissue banks is for research. Professors from research universities often obtain government grants designed to study the effects of specific elements on the human body and certain tissues of the body. The amount of money it requires to maintain such a facility, not to mention the laws and regulations for holding human tissue is rather extensive, which is why there are limited number of locations that are able to do just this. Universities are not often allowed to have their own tissue bank, which is why having one nearby allow for improved research for these colleges and the professors who work there. Third party organizations and companies looking to study new drugs and equipment often take advantage of these banks as well, and while these company are typically looking to progress its own product, it does allow for further study and understanding of the medication and what it can and cannot do to and for the body.

Human tissue banks are vital in the growth of medical science and the overall understanding of how the body works, which is why it is so important to take advantage of these locations.
