Our human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is collected from ethically consented donors under strict clinical and regulatory protocols, offering a physiologically relevant matrix for neurological and central nervous system (CNS) research. CSF is a clear, cell-free fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, making it essential for studies in neurodegeneration, biomarker discovery, drug penetration into the CNS, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability.
Each lot is minimally processed and quality-controlled to ensure purity and integrity, supporting a wide range of research applications from neuropharmacology to diagnostic development. Custom donor profiles (age, sex, disease state) and pooled samples are available upon request.
