Biospecimen preservation
Freeze-drying that stabilises specimen libraries for long-term, ambient-temperature storage without the freezer dependency.
Research sample lyophilization services for academic, hospital, and institutional labs across Canada — biospecimen library preservation, one-off formulation work, and small research batches, handled by a specialist so your team doesn't have to become one. We take the sample from cycle development to a documented result you can build on.
University, hospital, and institutional labs often need lyophilization for a single project: preserving a biospecimen library, stabilising a protein or reagent, or drying samples for a study. Buying and validating a lyophilizer, then developing a cycle in-house, rarely makes sense for one-off or small-batch work on a grant timeline.
We take that off your plate. Bring a formulation — or just a goal — and we'll develop the cycle, run the batch, and hand back a documented process. If your work falls outside our usual profiles, get in touch anyway; we'll tell you plainly whether we're a fit rather than fitting your project around a machine.
Freeze-drying that stabilises specimen libraries for long-term, ambient-temperature storage without the freezer dependency.
Cycle development for a single project — we build it from your material, even if you're starting from scratch.
Pilot-scale runs sized to a study or grant, without a commercial-scale minimum or commitment.
Each stage is signed off before the next begins, so you always know what's locked and what the next manufacturer will receive.
We review your material, target format, and requirements, then say plainly whether we're a fit.
Cryoprotectant screening and thermal characterization so the product holds through drying and storage.
A reproducible cycle built around your formulation, verified against your acceptance targets.
Documented pilot production in glass vials, with batch records structured for technology transfer.
We're built for exactly the small, one-off work big CDMOs turn away. Bring the sample and the goal; we'll tell you what's feasible and hand back a process you can cite.
If your question isn't here, send it — we'll answer before a first call.
Yes — that's much of what we do. One-off formulation and small-batch runs fit pilot-scale far better than they fit a large CDMO's minimums.
Yes. We're set up for study- and grant-sized batches, so small volumes aren't a problem the way they are at commercial scale.
Then we help build one. We can start from your material and goal and develop both the formulation and the freeze-drying cycle around it.
Yes. Freeze-drying stabilises specimen libraries for long-term ambient storage, reducing dependence on freezers and cold chain.
Tell us your deadline up front. We'll give you a realistic timeline once we understand the material, and flag early if it's tight.
Share your material and what you're trying to preserve or stabilise. We'll tell you plainly whether freeze-drying fits — and map a realistic timeline for your project.
