FFPE blocks · Research use

Human FFPE tissue

Research-use human FFPE tissue blocks, pathologist reviewed: normal control tissue, and cancer and disease tissue by indication. Tell us what you need and we'll work through the options with you.

Why our tissue

The block decides the data. Know what you're getting before it reaches your assay.

  • Pathologist reviewed

    Blocks are reviewed by a pathologist. H&E images with regions of interest annotated are available on request.

  • See the H&E first

    Whole-slide H&E images of candidate blocks are available on request, before you decide.

  • Clinical context

    Diagnosis, age, sex, and block size with every block. Treatment history and other metadata when available.

  • Normal controls

    Normal control tissue from a range of organs to run alongside your disease samples.

Ethically sourced. All human tissue is collected under IRB-approved protocols, with donor consent for research, and is de-identified before it reaches you.

Before you choose

See the H&E before you commit.

On request, we scan candidate blocks and share whole-slide H&E images with the pathologist's annotations, so you can confirm the tissue fits your study first.
