Yucatan Miniature Swine Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC)
Yucatan Minipig whole blood available fresh or processed for hematology and immunology research.
Yucatan Miniature Swine Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) Overview
Yucatan Miniature Swine Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) are research-grade animal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) intended for preclinical and translational research. Each order includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with lot-specific information including viability data, cell counts, and handling details to support consistency across studies.
PBMCs are isolated mononuclear cells including lymphocytes and monocytes, critical for immunological research requiring viable, functional immune cells.
Available fresh or cryopreserved to match your experimental timeline and viability requirements.
Common applications
- T cell and B cell functional assays
- Flow cytometry and immunophenotyping
- Cytokine secretion and ELISpot assays
- Mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR)
- CAR-T and cell therapy development
- Vaccine immunogenicity studies
Collection, processing & handling
PBMCs are isolated using density gradient separation with standardized protocols appropriate to the donor species. Fresh PBMCs are shipped in validated containers with temperature monitoring; cryopreserved PBMCs are shipped on dry ice with documented freeze-thaw protocols. Viability testing available upon request.
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 plasma for comprehensive immune profiling 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.
Yucatan Miniature Swine Overview
The Yucatan miniature swine has sparse hair and pigmented skin that closely models human dermatology and cardiovascular physiology. It is widely used in cardiovascular, dermal, and metabolic disease research.
