Paired Biopsy and Swab Sampling for UGI Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Paired biopsy and swab specimens from each participant were obtained from 236 participants under upper gastroenterology endoscopic examination during screening of UGI cancer. The mucosal specimens were collected using sterile swabs (Puritan, sterile polyester tipped applicators) prior to biopsies to prevent contamination of mucosal specimens with blood. If there were lesions, 5 looping brushes were taken at the lesion, or else 5 looping brushes were taken at the middle esophagus. After swab specimens were collected, the swab head was cut off into sterile tubes (Cryovial, cryogenic tube 3.0 mL) including 1.5 mL of cell preserving fluid (Hologic, ThinPrep, PreservCyt Solution, San Diego, USA). Biopsy specimens at the brush sampling site were macro-dissected by an experienced endoscopy doctor with sterile forceps under strict procedures, which were then placed into a sterile tube. All paired specimens were stored at −80 °C immediately after sampling and shipped to the laboratory on dry ice.

Biomarker Discovery in Colorectal Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

All participants fasted for 12 hours prior to surgical resection. A mucosal specimen and tissue biopsy from both the carcinoma and the adjacent normal mucosa from each participant were collected for a total of 412 specimens from 103 participants immediately after resection. The mucosal specimen from the carcinoma and the adjacent normal mucosa were collected using sterile swabs (Puritan®, sterile polyester tipped applicators) prior to the biopsies to prevent contamination of the mucosal specimens with blood. The adjacent normal specimens were collected from a location more than four centimeters from the carcinoma border. After mucosal sampling, the head of the swabs were broken off into sterile tubes (Cryovial®, cryogenic tube 3.0mL) including 1.5mL of cell preserving fluid (Hologic®, ThinPrep®, PreservCyt Solution). Tissue biopsies measuring 5*5*5mm³ were collected from carcinoma tissue and adjacent normal tissue by using sterile biopsy forceps and placed into a sterile tube without a preservative fluid. All specimens were stored at −80°C immediately after sampling and shipped to the laboratory at Promegene (Shenzhen, China) on dry ice.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
