Glasgow Tissue Research Facility

The Glasgow Tissue Research Facility (GTRF) integrates expertise and infrastructure to provide a high-quality histology service for tissue-based research.  

The histology service provided by the GTRF includes microtomy for the production of FFPE sections and tissue scrolls (under DNA/RNAse-free conditions), Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining, whole slide imaging, and tissue microarray (TMA) design and construction. The GTRF is committed to rigorous scientific standards, underpinned by robust standard operating procedures and quality assurance processes. This ensures the reliability and integrity of downstream analysis by academic and industrial partners for translational research and biomarker discovery.
