Epi Kit

Have the Mouse Biology cryopreserve your line through tissues with our Epigenetic Profiling Kit (Epi Kit). Don’t worry about shipping mice; ship tissues instead, and we’ll help cryopreserve your line.


The Mouse Biology Epi Kit is a specialized collection kit designed to facilitate the collection and transport of mouse epididymal and vas deferens tissue for downstream cryopreservation or analysis. This kit is tailored for researchers in reproductive biology, genetics, and related fields, enabling them to easily collect, preserve, and ship high-quality tissue samples.

Key Features of the Epi Kit:

  1. Comprehensive Collection Tools:
    • The kit includes sterile tools, such as forceps and scissors, for precise dissection and handling of the epididymis and vas deferens.
    • Collection vials are pre-labeled for easy identification and traceability.
  2. Preservation Medium:
    • A proprietary preservation solution is provided to maintain tissue integrity and cellular viability during transport.
    • RNA stabilization or cryopreservation options may be included, depending on the intended analysis.
  3. User-Friendly Protocol:
    • A step-by-step guide with illustrated instructions ensures users can accurately remove the epididymis and vas deferens with minimal risk of contamination or tissue damage.
  4. Temperature-Controlled Shipping:
    • The kit includes insulated packaging and ice packs or dry ice to maintain the required temperature for the shipment duration.
  5. Customization Options:
    • Clients can specify preservation needs based on the intended use of the tissues (e.g., cryopreservation, analysis, histology, RNA extraction, sperm phenotyping, etc.).

Collection and Submission Process:

  1. Tissue Harvesting:
    • Researchers perform a simple dissection to isolate the mouse epididymis and vas deferens following the provided protocol.
  2. Sample Preservation:
    • The tissues are placed into the provided preservation medium to prevent degradation.
  3. Packaging:
    • Samples are securely sealed in leak-proof containers, packed into temperature-controlled materials, and placed into a pre-addressed shipping box.
  4. Shipping to the Laboratory:
    • Clients ship the prepared kit to the designated laboratory using expedited shipping services for time-sensitive handling.
