BioChain’s Matched Pair Frozen and FFPE Tissues are highly valuable for cancer research. The mutation profiles may be compared between the normal and tumor tissues to discover novel cancer biomarkers. Differential protein expression and/or localization can also be examined for drug design studies. The primary and metastatic tumor pairs may be used to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of tumor progression.
BioChain offers a large inventory of matched pair tissues along with their extracted biomolecules (e.g. DNA, RNA, and proteins) to facilitate your oncology research. We also offer custom sample preparation and specimen procurement to fit your needs. Feel free to view our digitally scanned H&E image slides below and our datasheet with pathology information!
BioChain's human matched pair FFPE or Frozen blocks or 5um sections include:
Primary Tumor/Adjacent Normal tissue from the same donor
Primary Tumor/Metastatic Tumor from the same donor
Features:
Tissue from a wide variety of difficult to obtain tissue sources
Suitable for both immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization assays
Multiple tissues or single tissue per slide
Applications:
Cellular localization of tissue specific mRNA and protein expression
In situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, and in situ PCR application
Comparison of the locations of novel genes in different tissues
Matched Pair Total Protein is a useful tool for accelerating gene expression analysis by identifying tumor-specific and tumor metastatic proteins and genes.
