Micro-Yucatan Miniature Swine Diaphragm
Micro-Yucatan Miniature Swine Overview
The Micro-Yucatan is a smaller-statured line of the Yucatan miniature swine, offering the same human-relevant skin and cardiovascular characteristics in a more manageable size for handling and housing.
Quick Facts
Micro-Yucatan Miniature Swine Diaphragm is research-grade animal tissue 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.
Diaphragm tissue enables respiratory muscle research, ventilation studies, and investigations of muscular dystrophy.
Common applications
- Respiratory muscle physiology
- Muscular dystrophy research
- Ventilation and breathing studies
- Neuromuscular disease
- Phrenic nerve studies
Collection, processing & handling
Tissue is collected and processed with protocols designed to preserve downstream histology and molecular workflows. Available formats include fresh, frozen, OCT-embedded, or FFPE as appropriate. Cold-chain logistics with documented handling throughout.
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.
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.
