The African Green Monkey
Chlorocebus sabaeus
African green monkeys are increasingly important in biomedical research, particularly for infectious disease studies.
Natural hosts for SIV without disease progression, they provide unique insights into viral pathogenesis and represent a valuable model for respiratory virus research.
Human Similarity
~93% genetic homology with extensive immune receptor cross-reactivity
Global Availability
Multiple geographic origins with established breeding colonies
Regulatory Accepted
FDA & EMA preferred species for biologics safety assessment

Common Research Applications
African Green Monkey Lipemic Plasma is research-grade African green monkey plasma intended for preclinical and translational research. Each order includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with lot-specific information and handling details to support consistency across studies.
Plasma preserves coagulation factors and circulating biomarkers, providing an optimal matrix for pharmacokinetic studies and protein-based assays.
Common applications
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) and toxicokinetic (TK) studies
- Biomarker discovery and validation
- Cytokine and chemokine profiling
- Coagulation and hemostasis research
- Metabolomics and lipidomics workflows
Collection, processing & handling
Plasma is processed with documented anticoagulant (K2EDTA, Li-heparin, or citrate) and centrifugation conditions. Single or double-spin processing available. Packaging and shipping are configured for frozen or refrigerated logistics as appropriate to your workflow.
Quality control & documentation
QC testing options available on request, including material-appropriate analytical checks and extended documentation. Standard documentation includes collection/processing metadata, lot identifiers, and chain-of-custody records. Custom QC panels can be configured for GLP or regulatory-facing studies.
Also available: matched serum or whole blood samples from the same species for comprehensive study design.
Ordering notes
For specific donor criteria, source, volumes, or custom handling requirements, request a quote and include your study specifications. We routinely support longitudinal programs, matched sample sets, and custom collection protocols.

Our scientific team can advise on the optimal origin for your study design and regulatory requirements.
Serum is obtained from clotted blood without anticoagulant, lacking clotting factors. Plasma is obtained from anticoagulated blood and contains clotting factors. Choose serum for most immunoassays and clinical chemistry; choose plasma for coagulation studies or when clotting factors are relevant.
Store at -20°C for short-term (weeks) or -80°C for long-term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles as this can degrade proteins and affect assay results. Aliquot into single-use volumes upon receipt.
Lipemic serum appears cloudy due to high lipid content, which can interfere with certain assays. Hemolyzed serum has red discoloration from lysed red blood cells. We offer both normal and intentionally lipemic/hemolyzed samples for matrix interference testing.
