Covid-19 PBMC
About: Covid-19 PBMC samples are collected from clinically confirmed Covid-19 donors and cryopreserved for downstream immunology research. Ideal for studying innate and adaptive immune responses and impact of infection on immune recovery from Covid-19.
High-Quality PBMCs for Covid-19 Research
Covid-19 Human PBMC products are sourced from donors clinically diagnosed with Covid-19 and processed under stringent conditions to support immunology research. These cryopreserved peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) enable studies on immune dysregulation, cytokine response, and therapeutic screening for Covid-19-related inflammation.

Frequently Asked Questions
1 Answer
Electronic medical records are an option to be included with the PBMC sample, as well as, flow cytometry and other phenotypic testing.
1 Answer
YES – we can often accommodate treatment-naive samples including various cancers, and you can specify immunosupression status or other requirements in the I/E criteria.
1 Answer
Self-reported infectious disease testing is always available and some of our products have additional testing.
1 Answer
HLA-typing is available for some of our PBMC products.
1 Answer
YES to both – Unique donors can be specified, and multiple vials from the same donor can be arranged. You can specify these requirements when ordering.
1 Answer
Healthy PBMCs achieve over 90% vialbity post-thaw. Although our disease-state PBMCs are processed with same stringent SOP, there is more variability depending upon disease. Learn more about our post thaw viability here. https://sanguinebio.com/pbmc-viability-quality-assurance/
