Sample Compatibility
At Teiko Bio, we’ve worked with a wide range of sample types across human, mouse, and non-human primate.
Our team of expert immunologists have optimized protocols for accurate detection of immune cell subsets across sample types.

Sample Requirements
Each tissue type requires unique care in it’s collection and processing. We’ve created recommended guidelines for a wide range of tissues.

Whole Blood Collection
Our quick and easy-to-use TokuKits are ideal for whole blood collection at clinical trial sites.

PBMCs or Whole Blood?
With whole blood you get the same quality information about non-granulocytes as with PBMCs, plus additional insights into granulocyte populations (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils).
