Biobank under construction | PFL

This page has been automatically translated.

In accordance with the biobank regulations, researchers at UKBB have the opportunity to use biological samples (e.g. whole blood, plasma, serum, urine, cerebrospinal fluid) from a modern, structured biobank for scientific purposes. The samples are left-over samples from diagnostics for which the UKBB has general consent. The samples are collected according to a standardised process using specialised biobanking software in consultation with the central laboratory of the University Hospital and the paediatric laboratory at UKBB. The conditions of use of the biobank samples are set out in the UKBB biobank regulations. A corresponding ethics licence is a basic requirement for this.

Advantages for researchers:

  • Access to quality-assured samples
  • Standardised and legally compliant processes for processing and storage
  • IT-supported processes for data management
  • Co-operations with partner institutions (e.g. University Hospital Basel)
  • Governance structures for targeted research utilisation
