Blood is life
We are the only organization in the world that offer in-house medical, pharmaceutical and scientific knowledge and expertise, all under one roof. With almost 3,000 committed colleagues and 350,000 blood donors, we provide a better life for 300,000 patients each year.
After isolation and expansion of regulatory T cells, their capacity to suppress proliferation of conventional T cells can be analyzed within allogeneic PBMC cultures. The suppression of CD4+ and CD8+ T cell proliferation can be measured by flow cytometry.
This method of quantification enables analysis of up to 30 different cytokines, chemokines or growth factors in a single sample.
With our broad knowledge in immunology, we can offer our expertise in many types of cell-based assays. Whether it is setting up an all new assay or adjusting an existing assay to fit your needs.
Many cell-based assays are available to perform compounds screens. Examples: proliferation assays, cytokine analysis, whole blood stimulation and Mixed Lymphocyte Reactions.
Amongst our validated markers: C1INH (including inhibitor activity, Ag conc, Ab conc, Ab neutralising capacity), C1q, C3, C3d, C4, sC5b-9, C5, CH50, AP50, LP act, cytokines. In addition, we deliver the advantage to combine studies with our capailities in cellular assays (eg investigating Th/ Treg-cells responses).
Bloodtype genotyping (including allelic discriminations, clotting diseases and red cell deficiencies)
Leukemia markers/ gene expression (eg, p190, bcr, braf, myd88 etc)
HLA typing (low- and high resolution using NGS)
Nucleic extractions (DNA and RNA)
Nucleic extractions (DNA and RNA)
We can perform proliferation assays using 3H thymidine incorporation and/or proliferation dyes.
Proliferation of PBMCs, total T cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, NK cells and B cells or a combination thereof can be monitored.
We are pleased to perform pyrogen testing with MAT on your product batches
- Our laboratory is GMP and ISO 15189 certified
- MAT is executed according to European Pharmacopeia chapter 2.6.30 (Method A, B and/or C)
- Potential pyrogen contamination will be quantified relative to an international standard of endotoxin
- Experienced in MAT testing of proteins and antibodies from human and recombinant origin
Based on customer needs we perform product-specific validations. We also provide MAT feasibility testing, method development, SOP writing and in-process/batch release testing to reduce the workload of your laboratory. The customer will receive either a result letter, for in-process/batch release testing, or a (validation) report describing the performed tests and the obtained results.
Description of the assay:
General design of the assay:
Additional assays/ expertise:
Besides the NK cell cytotoxicity assays, we have several assay set-ups available to determine activation, proliferation and differentiation of immune cells, mainly using flow cytometry as a read-out. We generally focus on complete peripheral blood mononuclear cells or isolated T cells for these type of analyses, but these can of course also be applied to NK cells.
