Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL)

PS1120: Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL) - Human Respiratory Matrix for Pulmonary Research

Description:
Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid (Cat# PS1120) is a human-derived collected from the lower respiratory tract and offered as a biologically relevant matrix for pulmonary research, assay development, and respiratory biomarker studies. This product simulates real-world respiratory conditions and is suitable for method development involving infectious disease detection, lung pathology, and airway inflammation.

Collected via bronchoscopy and processed without preservatives, BAL fluid is stored at -20°C and supplied on a lot-specific basis. Ideal for laboratories developing or validating respiratory diagnostic assays including PCR, ELISA, and culture-based methods.

Applications:

• Development of diagnostic tests for respiratory infections
• Biomarker analysis in lung inflammation and fibrosis
• Validation of PCR and immunoassay workflows
• Pulmonary pharmacokinetics and toxicology studies

Specifications:

• Source: Human
• Preservative: None
• Storage Temp: -20°C
• Viral Testing: Not performed - for research use only

Note: For in vitro research or non-injectable manufacturing use only. Handle as potentially infectious human material.
