The New Standard in Biospecimens

It Starts With A Biospecimen

TriMetis has been providing access to biospecimens for over 15 years. 

Our team is made of the experts' experts; many of whom have been behind some of the most well-known companies in biospecimen procurement. 

We know the who, the how, and the what behind legally and ethically procuring human biospecimens for research. 

TriMetis has developed relationships throughout the world to acquire biospecimens for research.

Quantitative and Qualitative Tumor Purity

Eliminate the guesswork with TCAP 

For too long estimation has been accepted as the standard for tumor purity. At TriMetis, we've found accuracy as the solution. Biospecimens assessed with TCAP Quality Control Ai can tell you before you buy, qualitatively, what's in the tumor tissue.

The New Standard of Tissue Quality is here:

  • Tumor percentage by surface %
  • Tumor purity based on tumor nuclei count
  • Heatmaps showing where the tumor density is highest
  • See before you buy
  • Upload and analyze images from your other vendors
  • Or from your very own biobank

Interested in incorporating TCAP into your workflow?

Move your research further along by signing up for a Supplier account below, where you can upload your digital images and scan them with TCAP QC Ai Apps. You can choose to make your samples available globally for purchase or set your account to private and manage your inventory and data for your own project, or share the information with your team.

Want to confirm a tissue's quality before purchase?  That's easy with the ARCH Marketplace, featuring TCAP. Sign up for a Buyer account below and gain instant access to our marketplace that connects buyers with suppliers worldwide, featuring tissue samples that have already been scanned with Ai verifying the quality of the tissue before you ever decide to purchase.

TriMetis Computer-Assisted Pathology (TCAP)

TCAP, available via ARCH Marketplace and ARCH LabFlow systems, utilizes artificial intelligence to automate the analysis of H&E images eliminating additional time, effort, and cost. More accurate than a pathologist with less technician handling, TCAP Ai provides actionable qualitative and quantitative data, removing any doubt about the sufficiency of a biospecimen.  

  • TCAP Ai identifies and counts tumor nuclei, while measuring surface area, % tumor, and % necrosis.  
  • A Color Heatmap visually depicts the density and location of tumor nuclei. 
  • TCAP Ai combines the nuclei count, heatmap and spatial data to identify areas in the tissue with the highest concentration of tumor and DNA. It is perfect for screening tissue for Immunohistochemistry, confirming sufficient DNA for Genomic Profiling, or identifying areas with high tumor density for Tissue Microarray Arrays.  

TCAP Ai Use Case

Set ARCH Marketplace or LabFlow to conduct TCAP Ai analyses. Based on preset rules on the spatial data and nuclei count generated, TriMetis’ ARCH systems will automatically determine if the tissue meets your research need or has suitable DNA content for downstream molecular testing.  

  • If enough tumor nuclei, then scrape the entire slide. 
  • If enough tumor nuclei within a regionally specific area, then microdissection. 
  • If not enough tumor nuclei, then fail. 

Depending on your assay requirements, we can also build and deploy additional 3rd Party Ai Apps in the ARCH systems, such as contaminate identification and adipose cells. 

TCAP Ai Enables Robotic Automation

With the data available from the TCAP Ai, TriMetis is currently designing two robots for picking tissues based on the TCAP Ai heatmap analyses. 

Printing - Utilizing the TCAP Ai results, the printer adjusts to each unstained slide and prints an outlined area with the most tumor nuclei onto the back of the slide(s).  

Coring - Utilizing TCAP Ai results, FFPE blocks are conveyed and cored based on the hotspots where tumor nuclei density satisfies the selection rules for downstream testing. The result is fully automated coring of FFPE blocks into dissociation tubes of your choice. 

The addition of one of these robots removes handling steps and manual work to allow your laboratory to scale and focus on the high value clinical care and revenue generating activities.

The LabFlow Offering

We can set up a system where your images are driven directly from a scanner to containers in the cloud. TCAP is then run on those images (in the cloud) determining the percent tumor and necrosis. Additionally, TCAP will deliver a heat map of those images outlining regions of interest. TriMetis’ ARCH LabFlow system, featuring TCAP was developed to automate quality control of specimens freeing high-demand personnel up to focus on high-value activities.
