Biological Products maintains a frozen cell bank of PBMCs and Isolated cell types. We have high resolution HLA and purity data for all frozen cells.
Biological Products maintains a donor pool, so most frozen cells can be used to screen donors, who can be recalled for special projects.
In addition to the frozen cell bank, customized freezing services can be applied to large or small cell orders and can be performed according needs of the researcher.
Selected to support more than 90 hospitals coast to coast, Bloodworks Northwest delivers comprehensive products and services to support the highest level of patient care. Each year Bloodworks helps over 55,000 patients to receive lifesaving transfusions. Founded in 1944, we are local, non-profit, community-based and backed by 230,000 donors and volunteers.
