What we supply
Whole blood, serum and plasma, PBMCs, leukopaks, and isolated immune cell populations — CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD19+ and CD56+. Beyond peripheral blood: synovial fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, skin punch biopsies, bone marrow mononuclear cells and cord blood.
Every specimen type is available from healthy donors and from patients with clinically confirmed disease, with age- and sex-matched healthy controls available for case-control designs. Everything is supplied for Research Use Only.
Every collection runs under an IRB-approved protocol. Consent is captured electronically in a 21 CFR Part 11–compliant system, and donor data is handled under HIPAA. Consent documentation, IRB protocol summaries and certificates of analysis are available on request, and for regulated programmes we can support deeper record pulls.
A specimen with a defect in its consent chain is not a bargain at any price. It is a finding waiting to surface in an audit, usually at the least convenient moment.
Research Use Only — not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Three things worth asking any supplier, including us
Can they produce the consent document for the specific lot you are buying, not a generic template?
Does the consent cover commercial research use, or only academic?
If the study is heading toward an IND or CTA submission, will the documentation package survive inspection?
Vendor Evaluation
How to evaluate a biospecimen supplier
Price per vial is the easiest number to compare and the worst predictor of whether a study succeeds. A cheaper lot that fails your inclusion criteria costs a re-order and a month.
Criterion
Why it matters
What to ask
Diagnosis verification
Self-reported conditions introduce silent variability into your cohort
"Are diagnoses confirmed against medical records?"
Clinical metadata depth
A vial without context is a sample of unknown relevance
"What data ships with each lot?"
Lot-level transparency
You should see donor detail before you buy, not after
"Can I see per-lot donor data before ordering?"
Stock depth
Partial cohorts stall studies mid-flight
"How many vials of this exact lot exist?"
Custom capability
Off-the-shelf inventory rarely matches a real protocol
"Can you collect to my specification?"
Longitudinal recall
Treatment-effect work needs the same donor again
"Can you re-draw this donor in three months?"
Consent scope
Academic-only consent blocks commercial use
"Does the consent cover commercial research?"
Documentation
Regulatory submissions get inspected
"Will this package hold up to FDA or EMA review?"
Procurement and purchasing
Purchase orders and credit card are supported, and quotes can be generated directly from the catalog for procurement sign-off without waiting on a sales cycle.
In-stock lot pricing is visible in the catalog before you commit. Cost depends on specimen type, volume or cell count, how rare the donor condition is, and whether the lot is in stock or collected to order — so a quote is specific to your request rather than a starting point for negotiation.
We ship worldwide and can provide the export, import and customs documentation your institution requires.

Export, import and customs documentation on request
Send the inclusion and exclusion criteria — disease state, treatment status, biomarker profile, demographics, volume, timepoints — and we scope feasibility, timeline and cost at no charge. Collection timelines are confirmed with the quote.
This is the part of the model that a reseller cannot replicate, and it is usually why teams move to us in the first place.
A company that provides human biological samples — blood, tissue, biofluids — to research teams. Suppliers differ in where the material comes from: some resell inventory banked by hospitals or third parties, others recruit donors and collect directly. Sanguine does the latter.
How is Sanguine different from a biobank?
We recruit patients and healthy volunteers ourselves rather than reselling banked inventory, which means diagnoses are verified against medical records, donors can usually be re-drawn, and we can collect to a specification the catalog does not carry.
What conditions do you cover?
More than 100 confirmed disease states across oncology, autoimmune and inflammatory disease, neurology, metabolic and cardiovascular disease, infectious disease, and rare and genetic conditions.
Are your biospecimens ethically sourced?
Every collection runs under an IRB-approved protocol with 21 CFR Part 11–compliant electronic informed consent and HIPAA-compliant data handling. Consent documentation is available on request.
How fast can you ship?
In-stock lots typically ship in 2–3 business days under temperature-controlled conditions with full chain of custody. Made-to-order and prospective collection timelines are quoted per request.
What clinical data comes with each sample?
Confirmed diagnosis, demographics, current and historical medications, comorbidities, collection and processing detail, and where available HLA typing and relevant lab values.
Can I buy biospecimens internationally?
Yes. We ship worldwide and can provide the export, import and customs documentation your institution requires.
How is pricing determined?
By specimen type, volume or cell count, rarity of the donor condition, and whether the lot is in stock or collected to order. In-stock lot pricing is visible in the catalog and quotes are available instantly.
