Quality assurance
Quality assurance in biobanking involves all phases from sampling to publishing scientific results.
The Janus Serum Bank has established its own quality manual which contains all necessary procedures and routines, including handling of samples, storage, analysis methods, data quality and administrative conditions such as sample accessibility for the researchers, scientific evaluation of projects, study design and coding system. Both storage and handling of biological samples are regulated by laws on the protection of privacy, necessitating stringent procedures and routines.
