A promising approach to reducing inflammation in IBD patients – the latest scientific article review by the BIOMEDICA CRO team 🧬
In a recent study, scientists from Finland and Sweden explored the anti-inflammatory, anti-proteolytic, antimicrobial, and prebiotic properties of fermented lingonberry juice, highlighting its potential benefits in alleviating Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).
The study found that by targeting both the mouth and gut, fermented lingonberry juice leverages potent bioactive compounds to combat microbial dysbiosis and protect against inflammation, presenting a promising natural solution for managing Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease.
The researchers call for further studies and human clinical trials to confirm the beneficial effects of lingonberry in reducing gastrointestinal inflammation and alleviating IBD symptoms.

Order FFPE blocks, fresh frozen tissue or biofluid samples at BIOMEDICA CRO for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) research projects 🩸
At BIOMEDICA CRO, we do biosample procurement through a vast network of partnered hospitals across Ukraine, supplying high-quality biospecimens globally. Since 2017, we have provided both prospective and retrospective collections of various human biospecimen types and associated clinical data.
Our extensive network includes over 50 direct contracts with hospitals, enabling us to support research in numerous disease areas, including Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). For instance, we can supply the following biospecimens from subjects with Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease:
- FFPE blocks with inflamed and uninflamed tissue specimens;
- Inflamed and uninflamed fresh frozen tissue specimens;
- Whole blood, plasma, buffy coat, serum, PBMC;
- Saliva;
- Urine;
- Stool, and more.
We can also provide matched cases from a single donor, combining tissue specimens (FFPE blocks and/or fresh frozen tissue) with biofluids such as plasma, buffy coat, and serum.
By managing the collection process ourselves, we ensure seamless communication and high-quality biospecimens. Our team maintains constant contact with clinical sites and primary investigators to provide real-time updates and feedback on collections. This direct interaction guarantees that physicians fully understand the collection requirements, resulting in high-quality samples.
If you require a reliable partner to source biofluid or tissue specimens for your IBD research projects, BIOMEDICA CRO is ready to assist!
