Animal PBMCs
The only CRO-led veterinary biobank combining clinical partnerships, in-house processing, and high-quality biological specimens — bridging real-world veterinary medicine and advanced research.
Why PBMCs are used in Drug Development?
Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) are immune response cells that include lymphocytes, monocytes and dendritic cells. PBMCs are widely used in clinical research because they provide a convenient, minimally invasive way to study the immune system and its response to diseases, infections and therapies.
Veterinary PBMC Samples by Species
High-purity PBMCs from beagle, cynomolgus monkey, minipig, and more — ensuring consistent data and reliable results across studies.
Key Reasons for their Popularity
PBMCs are useful in understanding various physiological and pathological mechanisms in humans and animals. The following are applications of PMBCs and reasons why animal PBMCs have become widely used in recent years:
Key to Immune Research
Essential for studying immune responses, autoimmunity, and vaccine development.
In Vitro Ready
Perfect for drug testing and cell interaction studies.
Easy to Collect
Simple blood-based sampling allows repeat testing.
Cross-Species Compatibility
Available from dogs, cats, monkeys, and pigs — broadening translational research potential.
Consistent Results
Standardised methods ensure reliability across research.
Consistent Results
Standardised methods ensure reliability across research.
Uncompromising Quality at Every Step
At Lab4Paws, quality isn’t just a process — it’s our promise.
From collection to cryostorage, each biospecimen undergoes strict quality assessment, documentation, and traceability. We adhere to GLP-aligned protocols, maintain full chain-of-custody transparency, and ensure samples are categorised, processed, and preserved under controlled conditions to maintain integrity and reproducibility.
Contact us if you have special requests and we will be glad to accommodate them.
Blood Collection
Samples are collected under ethical protocols using anticoagulants to prevent clotting and maintain cell integrity.
Dilution
Blood is diluted with sterile saline or PBS to optimise density and prepare for separation.
Centrifugation
Diluted blood is layered over Ficoll or Histopaque and centrifuged to isolate the PBMC layer.
PBMC Extraction
The thin white PBMC layer is carefully collected and transferred to a clean tube.
Washing
Cells are washed with PBS or culture medium to remove debris and contaminants.
Counting & Quality Check
Cell number and viability are assessed; only >90% viable PBMCs proceed.
Storage or Use
PBMCs are used fresh or cryopreserved at –196°C for long-term storage and shipping.
Delivering reliable, high-viability PBMCs with precision and care
Every specimen we deliver meets rigorous scientific, ethical, and regulatory standards — ensuring data reliability and research excellence.
50% Overfill Guarantee
Every unit is overfilled by 50% to ensure target cell count post-thaw.
Serum-Free Cryopreservation
Cells are preserved in serum-free media to maintain purity during global shipping.
Fast Turnaround
In-stock cells ship within 2 days; new projects within 2–3 weeks by species.
Trusted Delivery
Europe-wide delivery in 24–48 hours and worldwide on dry ice or with certified dry shippers.
