Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. It has been incorporated with the LBIH Biobank. The Liverpool Tissue Bank (LTB) collects biological samples (tissue surplus to diagnostic requirement and blood) from patients undergoing surgery or biopsy procedure for the treatment and diagnosis of a wide variety of medical conditions. The main focus of the LTB is collecting samples from patients where cancer is a confirmed or likely diagnosis. These samples are banked to provide an invaluable resource for research groups investigating the molecular mechanisms involved in a range of medical conditions with the aim of devising new treatments and therapies. The Liverpool Tissue Bank (LTB) was formerly known as the Cancer Tissue Bank Research Centre (CTBRC) and changed to the LTB in late 2009. The Tissue Bank was established in 1991 from a charitable donation by the Candis Club, the charitable arm of Candis Magazine. It is a University of Liverpool resource located within the Department of Pathology, School of Cancer Studies. The LTB operates a cost recovery scheme where a charge is made to researchers to cover the costs involved in the collection, storage and processing of biosamples.
