Biospecimensthat movescience forward
EDBIO sources and supplies human biospecimens for research — biofluids, tissue and viable cells from healthy donors and defined patient populations, with the clinical and demographic data that make a result interpretable.

The premise
Every study stands on material someone else collected. Our job is that you know exactly what that material is.
EDBIO sources human biofluids, tissue and viable cells — from healthy donors and from patients with defined conditions — through diagnostic laboratories, clinics and biobanks across several regions. Residual specimens, prospective collections and existing inventories are all within reach.
Every sample is supplied with the laboratory, clinical or demographic data your protocol calls for. Where the catalogue has no answer, we design the collection around your specification instead of offering the nearest match.
