Obesity PBMC
About: Obesity PBMC samples are isolated from donors with clinically confirmed obesity (BMI ≥30). Ideal for studying immune cell dysregulation, chronic low-grade inflammation, and metabolic-immune interactions contributing to obesity-related complications.
Obesity PBMC for Research
Obesity PBMC samples are collected from donors clinically diagnosed with obesity and processed under controlled conditions to support metabolic and immunology research. These cryopreserved peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) enable studies of chronic low-grade inflammation, metabolic–immune interactions, and immune-cell dysregulation in obesity.

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/
