JSS Biorepository Center is a secure facility for storing both human and research animal/plant biological material, and their associated dataset for research and commercial purposes. It is aiming to store well-annotated samples linked with clinical metadata through standardized protocols, facility for high-quality, standardized processing of samples that supports cutting-edge translational research, innovation in diagnostics, and the advancement of personalized medicine. JSSBC complies with ICMR National Ethical guidelines-2017 with respect to safety, universal standards and testing of biomaterials
The JSS Biorepository Center (JSSBC) serves the following objectives
Analyse samples received from Scientists, researchers and other organizations
Our Skill enhancements programs focus on application of knowledge
Provide modern analytical instruments facilities to accelerate fundamental and advanced research
To attract Extra Mural research funding in the area of cancer, Orphan Drugs, Diabetes, antitubercular, brain Disorders and analytical method development, Impurity profiling from various National and International agencies.
Create networking between research organizations in specific instrumentation for synergetic growth.
Offer expert guidance in data interpretation (challenging data), funding options and instrumentation in consonance with industrial experts
Hub for storage facility including 4°C, −20°C, −80°C and liquid nitrogen cryopreservation (−196°C) to ensure optimal short- and long-term preservation of biospecimens fully backed up with 24/7 power support.
LCMS (Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry) enables precise identification and quantification of biomolecules in biological samples. It supports advanced analysis of metabolites, drugs, and biomarkers.
The Tissue Processor ensures efficient and standardized processing of tissue specimens for histopathological evaluation by preserving cellular architecture
The Microtome enables precise cutting of ultra-thin tissue sections for detailed microscopic examination.
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a specialized technique used to detect specific antigens in tissue sections using targeted antibodies. It enables precise visualization of protein expression patterns and plays a crucial role in disease characterization, biomarker identification
Automated Stainer streamlines the staining process for tissue and slide samples with high precision and consistency
Gel Documentation System captures and analyzes high-resolution images of electrophoresis gels and western blots, enabling accurate visualization, quantification, and record-keeping of DNA, RNA, or protein bands
Thermal Cycler enables precise amplification of DNA through controlled temperature cycling for PCR applications. It supports rapid and reliable analysis of genetic material
Real-Time PCR (qPCR) is a sensitive molecular technique used to amplify and quantify DNA or RNA in real time during the amplification process.
NanoDrop enables rapid quantification and purity assessment of DNA/RNA using very small sample volumes.
6-Part Differential Cell Counter is an automated hematology analyzer that classifies white blood cells into six distinct populations. It also provides rapid, accurate measurement of other blood parameters including RBC, hemoglobin, platelet, reticulocytes, RBC indices, nRBC, IRF, IPF etc
Multiplate Reader enables high-throughput analysis of multiple samples simultaneously in microplate formats. It supports various assays such as ELISA, protein quantification, and cell-based studies with high sensitivity
Our comprehensive cytology services include FNAC with and without imaging guidance such as CT, USG, and endoscopy for precise sample collection. We offer fluid cytology, cell block preparation, PAP smear screening, and staining services for early detection of cellular abnormalities.
It is recommended to collect the biospecimens in labeled TARSON cryovials.
A duly filled service request form must be submitted for storing the biospecimen through the portal available on www.jssuni.edu.in
A duly filled retrieval form to be submitted after completion of storage duration through the portal available on www.jssuni.edu.in
JSS Biorepository Center is open to internal researchers (JSSAHER faculty, postgraduate, undergraduate students and PhD scholars) who are undertaking research projects and external collaborators (universities, research labs, biomedical companies). All usage is governed by ethical and procedural approvals
