Sinclair Nanopig Serum
Sinclair Minipig serum available for research applications. Collected using validated protocols to ensure high quality and consistency.
Sinclair Nanopig Serum Overview
Sinclair Nanopig Serum is research-grade pig serum 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.
Serum provides a protein-rich, cell-free matrix ideal for immunoassays, antibody detection, and clinical chemistry applications.
Common applications
- ELISA and multiplex immunoassay panels
- Clinical chemistry and metabolic profiling
- Antibody titer and serological testing
- Protein biomarker quantification
- PK/PD and dose-response studies
Collection, processing & handling
Serum is processed from clotted blood using consistent separation practices optimized for immunoassay and clinical chemistry applications. Packaging and shipping are configured for frozen logistics to preserve biomarker integrity.
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 plasma samples for comparative biomarker analysis 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.
Sinclair Nanopig Overview
The Sinclair Nanopig is the smallest miniature swine line and is renowned for spontaneously developing cutaneous melanoma that regresses much like human melanoma, providing a unique large-animal model for oncology and dermatology research.
