Biobanking Transport Information
Maintain sample integrity at every step
Maintaining integrity of your biospecimens at every point of transfer from collection to shipping/distribution is imperative to obtaining quality sample and associated data. The right logistics plan, climate, transport containers, and chain-of-custody as well as the type of samples and their intended use are vital to regulating sample temperature during transportation. Learn about the solutions that are available to how you can ensure proper temperature when relocating/transporting your biobank assets that requires controlled ambient, refrigerated, sub-zero, ultra low, or cryogenic (–196°C) temperature.

Frozen Tissue Targets for Cancer Research
When it comes to biospecimens, available stores must be both readily available and appropriate for proposed research in order to meet the needs of the scientific community. Further to this, assessing research trends to forecast demand for particular sample types could positively impact funding and ensure biobank sustainability.
