The purpose of the present work is to underline the importance of obtaining a standardized
procedure to ensure and evaluate both clinical and research usability of human tissue …

Biospecimen science has recognized the importance of tissue quality for accurate molecular
and biomarker analysis and efforts are made to standardize tissue procurement, processing …

An increasing number of biospecimens are being collected in the context of multicenter and
international clinical studies and diagnostics. This has revealed the need to optimize …

Control of biospecimen quality that is linked to processing is one of the goals of biospecimen
science. Consensus is lacking, however, regarding optimal sample quality-control (QC) tools …

Contemporary pathological and molecular analysis depends on high quality human
biospecimens. Poor biospecimen quality may compromise such analyses and the resultant …

It is well recognised that genomic, proteomic and biomarker studies require properly
annotated and well-characterised biospecimens. Consequently, this necessitates biobanks …

Background The objective of the COMET (COllection of MEtabolic Tissues) biobank project
is to create a high-quality collection of insulin-sensitive tissues (liver, muscle, adipose …

In recent years, biobanks have evolved into professional infrastructures that acquire,
validate, process, store, manage and distribute biological material of human origin to public …

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the development of biological samples
and biobanks that make it easier for investigators to have access to quality samples and …

Introduction: Based on the experience from a Swedish biobank, we established a clinical
cervical cytology biobank and adapted it to a Danish setting. The aim of the present study …
