Case Studies

Infiuss Biospecimen Case Studies

Interested in leveraging Infiuss Health for your clinical research? Here are some examples of how we’ve helped other life sciences organizations.

Oncology

Infiuss Health successfully supported a sponsor's carcinoma research by providing high-quality Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks. The sponsor required well-preserved tissue samples with comprehensive pathology reports. We supplied FFPE tissue blocks that were properly fixed, free from autolysis, and of sufficient size to yield 40 slides or more. We packaged and shipped the specimens to the sponsor's facility. The high-quality samples and detailed pathology reports enabled the researchers to conduct their analyses effectively and obtain reliable results.

Cytology

We recently contributed to a sponsor's Human Papillomavirus (HPV) research by delivering high-quality cytology samples. The sponsor required one unique sample per patient, with diagnoses of Negative for Low Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions (LSIL) and High Grade Intraepi-thelial Lesions (HSIL). Each sample was accurately diagnosed as Negative for LSIL and HSIL. To maintain sample integrity during transportation, we utilized thinprep vials to ship the specimens to the sponsor's laboratory. This attention to detail guaranteed that the samples arrived in optimal condition for analysis.
