The Baboon
Papio anubis
Baboons are large Old World primates valuable for cardiovascular, reproductive, and xenotransplantation research.
Their size and physiological similarity to humans make them particularly useful for surgical studies and organ transplant 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
Baboon Bone Marrow MNCs is research-grade baboon bone marrow 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.
Bone marrow provides access to hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor populations essential for hematology, oncology, and regenerative medicine research.
Common applications
- Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) research
- Colony-forming unit (CFU) assays
- Bone marrow transplant modeling
- Hematological malignancy studies
- Myeloid and lymphoid differentiation research
Collection, processing & handling
Bone marrow is collected via aspiration with documented protocols. Available as whole aspirate, mononuclear cell preparations, or processed fractions. Shipped fresh or cryopreserved depending on downstream application requirements.
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 peripheral blood for comparative hematopoiesis studies from the same species for comprehensive study design.

Bone marrow MNCs contain a higher proportion of hematopoietic progenitors (CD34+ cells), mesenchymal stromal cells, and early immune cell precursors compared to PBMCs. The myeloid-to-lymphoid ratio is also different, with more myeloid precursors in BM-MNCs.
Bone marrow is aspirated from the iliac crest under anesthesia. The aspirate is processed by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation to isolate mononuclear cells. The procedure is similar to PBMC isolation but starts from bone marrow aspirate rather than peripheral blood.
Thaw rapidly at 37°C, dilute dropwise into pre-warmed medium. Add DNase I (10 µg/mL) to reduce clumping. Centrifuge at 300g for 10 minutes and resuspend in fresh medium. Rest 2-4 hours before plating.
Post-thaw viability is typically ≥70% for BM-MNCs. CD34+ progenitor content and colony-forming capacity are maintained post-thaw. Fresh cells are recommended for engraftment or long-term culture studies.
Yes. Donor reservation and matched sample sets (BM-MNCs + PBMCs + serum) are available. Donor demographics and health records are provided with each lot.
