Efficient sample management logistics enable global immune monitoring services

Precision’s immune monitoring services are strengthened by a global logistics network, designed to safeguard sample integrity and maximize data reliability.

Clinical Reach

Global clinical sample and PBMC processing

  • Global PBMC processing in 24-hours or less
  • Regular competency assessment and monitoring to ensure site-to-site and lab-to-lab data comparability
  • Long- and short-term storage at optimal temperatures

Clinical sample logistics and biostorage

We have a 100,000 sq. ft. biorepository, which includes our 140,000 sq. ft. campus in Frederick, Maryland, and our global logistics and biobanking facilities in Berlin, Germany. This extensive network was the first to receive CAP certification. Currently, we are responsible for the storage of >20 million biospecimens under controlled conditions. We can accommodate any type of fluid or solid biological specimen at controlled ambient temperatures, +4℃, -20℃, -80℃, or in liquid nitrogen vapor.

The biorepository includes numerous security and safety features:

  • Redundant back-up systems, dedicated back-up units
  • Around-the-clock automated temperature monitoring
  • In-house HVAC technicians, specializing in cascade refrigeration

Unlocking potential: flow cytometry for breakthrough research
