Proper Citation: DCI Tissue and Blood Procurement Shared Resource (RRID:SCR_004116)

Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. Over 10,000 patient consents, 5,000 banking events, and 40,000 biospecimens have been processed to date with storage of both formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue and frozen tissue located within multiple freezers spanning temperatures in the range of -80 degrees to -180 degrees C depending on protocol requirements. Considerable effort continues to be expended to assure compliance with IRB, NIH and HIPAA best practices and guidelines on banking human tissues. The biorepository in place today is the result of the combined efforts of the Duke Cancer Institute (DCI) Breast SPORE, DCI Shared Resource for Tissue and Blood Procurement, and the Duke University School of Medicine Research Foundation (DUSOM-RF). The DCI and the School of Medicine Research Foundation (SOMRF) have funded the collection of frozen and fixed tissues, both malignant and benign, under an ?????????????????excess tissue????????????????? protocol that utilizes freshly excised tissue that is available for research after the needs of the pathologic workup are met. This program procures tissues from many anatomic sites including breast. Recently Duke''s Institute of Genome Science & Policy (IGSP), under the direction of Drs. Geoff Ginsburg and Tom Burke, initiated a blood collection program that spans several departments and institutes. The Breast SPORE blood collection program served as the pilot for this much larger effort. The Breast SPORE tissue and blood collection effort utilizes much of the same infrastructure and personnel that are also supported by the DCI, SOMRF, and IGSP.
