Frequently Asked Questions
Should I order fresh or frozen tissue?
Most of our tissues are frozen promptly after collection and shipped on dry ice, which halts enzymatic activity and keeps the tissue stable in storage at -10°C or below. Fresh (non-frozen) tissues such as fresh rabbit psoas and skeletal muscle ship on wet ice for applications that need unfrozen tissue, and should be used on arrival.
Are tissues collected from a USDA-inspected abattoir?
Yes, our rabbit tissues are collected from our Rogers, AR rabbit processing facility, where a USDA inspector remains on site at all times during processing. Each rabbit processed is inspected and any by-products collected are discarded should any animal be found to be unfit for human consumption or otherwise unsuitable for use.
