Biobanking

This project provides the platform for longtime storage of biomaterials (blood, urine, DNA) for investigations regarding the discovery of new biomarkers or biomarker profiles with genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic approaches. A fully automated biobank will be used for storage of biomaterials at -80°C. Furthermore, this project provides standardized and quality controlled workflows for obtaining and processing of biomaterials. Finally, all laboratory diagnostic measurements will be carried in this project as interface to the other partner site projects.
