The collaboration aims to streamline workflow from sample receipt and storage through to advanced molecular analysis
Molecular testing laboratory Carolina Molecular has partnered with storage and biorepository specialist Astoriom to streamline workflow from sample receipt and storage through to advanced molecular analysis.
CROs and pharmaceutical and biotechnology partners will benefit from this optimised approach to testing and sample storage.
“By combining our molecular testing with Astoriom’s storage capabilities, we’re streamlining logistics and providing an end-to-end solution at a time when operational efficiency is more critical than ever,” said Carolina Molecular president Trent Carrier.
The collaboration combines Carolina Molecular’s expertise in CAP/CLIA-certified and NYS-registered molecular testing, including NGS Foundry services and bioinformatic analysis, with Astoriom’s knowledge of ICH-compliant stability storage, CAP-certified biorepository and ultra-low and cryogenic temperature solutions across the US, EU, and UK.
The intention of the partnership is to enhance sample integrity, regulatory compliance, and accelerated research and development timelines.
[Carolina Molecular’s] testing expertise and our trusted biorepository and stability storage capabilities create seamless solutions for customers,” said Astoriom CEO Lori Ball.
“As we continue to respond to our customer needs, partnerships like this allow us to better serve life sciences teams who are pushing boundaries in discovery and development.”
