Specibio Pooled Human Tears. Pack size: 1 ml.
Pooled human tears provide an ocular-surface biofluid matrix for protein and biomarker research.
The material can be evaluated for tear-fluid assays and low-volume sample-preparation workflows.
Pooled material combines contributions from multiple donors for studies using a composite matrix.
Collection method, dilution and analyte concentrations should be confirmed for the intended assay.
For research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Specifications: The fluid is collected from donors in an FDA-approved or similar certified collection center.
Please note that this product does not allow for donor requests off-the-shelf, but custom specified lots to your exact specifications can be made available upon requests. Contact us for details & pricing.
Application: • Ocular-surface and tear biomarker research.
• Exploratory tear proteomics and protein profiling.
• Tear-fluid immunoassay development.
• Low-volume extraction and matrix-effect evaluation.
• Suitability must be verified for the specific assay and lot.
Viral Testing: The product is tested for the standard FDA-required viral markers, and found negative for HBsAg, HCV, HIV-1/HIV-2 Antigen Antibody Combo, and Anti‑T. Pallidum using FDA-approved methods. When applicable a licensed NAT for Babesia has been performed and found to be non-reactive, if you would like any further testing or analysis performed prior to shipping, please let us know. While we make every effort to ensure the safety of our products, we recommend following universal precautions as laid out by the following organizations WHO, CDC and OSHA, when handling biological materials.
Product Handling: – Store frozen at −20°C when specified by the supplier
– Keep tightly sealed to minimize evaporation.
– Thaw only the quantity needed and minimize repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
– Handle as potentially infectious human material.
– Shelf life depends on the analyte being tested; do not assign a universal expiry without stability data.
