Precision Molecular Pathology Research Services

Our state-of-the-art facility can perform high through put, rapid immunohistochemical techniques for research specimens. 

We offer a full workflow for digital pathology from sectioning, staining, slide scanning to image analysis, using our developed 9 plex antibody panels in human tissue. We have experience of working in tonsil, oesophageal, pancreas, bladder, prostate, placenta, ovarian, and endometrial tissue. 

Our experienced cooperative team can work with researchers to develop multiplex panels up to 8 markers using the Lecia Bond Rx and Akoya Bioscineces PhenoImager HT. The lab is HTA compliant, using Elab for sample tracking, and carrying work out to good lab practice standards.

Services we offer

  • Sectioning FFPF tissue blocks
  • Staining Chromogenic and IF: Our lab is equipped with the Lecia Bond RX and can carry out 
  • Scanning Brightfield and Fluorescence Images: using the PhenoImager HT
  • AI mediated analysis using Inform and Qupath
