There are several ways to deposit samples in the biobanc, always with the informe consent from the patient:
- Surplus from a research project
- Surplus from diagnostics
- Recruitment of samples using Biobank circuit
- Deposits of pre-existing collections or historical collections
To initiate deposits or sample recruitment please contact the Central Node of the Biobank first at biobanc(ELIMINAR)@igtp.cat
