AnaBios - Adult Human Brain Tissue Samples
AnaBios offers high quality human brain and other neurological tissue samples recovered via our propriety methods. Tissue recovery may be customized to meet your specific experimental needs. AnaBios offers normal and diseased human tissue samples. In addition, we provide demographic details, including sex, age, ethnicity, BMI and cause of death.

AnaBios has developed unprecedented capabilities to recover viable human tissue samples consented for research. We rely on a vast network of US-based medical facilities and have developed proprietary solutions to preserve tissue viability.
We have more than 10 years of experience procuring ethically-sourced human tissue samples processed utilizing proprietary methods to maximize success in experimentation involving proteomics, metabolomics and gene expression analysis.
High-quality brain tissue samples are ideally suited for supporting neuroscience-related scientific research and drug discovery.
As demonstrated in the figure above, AnaBios provides human tissue with industry-leading quality as shown by the mean RIN scores (± SD) for tissue from 18 brains recovered in 2021-22. The RIN score for each brain tissue sample was consistently greater than 7, which is the threshold required for using RNA for measuring transcript levels. This score indicates that the RNA is intact and was not degraded during the tissue recovery process.
Preserved human brain tissue samples can be used to support proteomic and transcriptomic studies of the human brain. Brain samples are flash frozen, preserved in RNAlater or fixed by formalin- based solutions. These human tissue samples can be used for bulk RNA extraction, proteomic and expression analyses, or immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry.
