Proper Citation: UCL-RFH BioBank (RRID:SCR_008738)
Description: A physical repository located in London, UK which banks all types of frozen samples. In particular, samples considered relevant material, such as tissues and cells, that are licensed by the Human Tissue Authority, can be stored long term. Existing holdings of tissues and cells where appropriate can be transferred to the Physical BioBank at the Royal Free. Samples can be stored at -80 or in Liquid nitrogen and will be stored in either 1.2ml or 2ml cryotubes. The UCL-Royal Free BioBank will set up service level agreements with all users which define the responsibilities of the user and the biobank in all aspects of biobanking from consent and collection through to disposal and transfer to third parties. Depositors will remain the owner of the tissues which they deposit (either physically or virtually). Samples are tracked using a specific database (BioVault) and all samples submitted are entered into a secure inter-relational database hosted by UCL. Patient-specific identifiers are removed and held on a separate database. In addition, all holders of samples held in other locations in UCL (including fixed tissues, plasma, sera, DNA and RNA) will be invited to add their holdings to the BioBank Research Database hosted by UCL. The biobank also provides logistical support to more conventional clinical trials and the capacity to store trial samples for additional or future testing.
