Background
| What is caTissue Core?
|
| Advances in molecular technologies and sophistication in clinical trial design have increased the importance of biospecimen banks in the collecting, processing, storing, and distributing of human specimens for correlative science cancer research. Once regarded as wax museums that simply doled out paraffin tissue sections for immunohistochemical analysis, biospecimen banks are now responsible for collecting and distributing multiple human specimen types for molecular studies.
caTissue Core is a web-based biospecimen inventory and tracking tool that may be used by biospecimen resource facilities, regardless of the nature of biospecimen transactions that occur or the type of biospecimens involved in the transaction.
| caTissue Core is caBIG's™ tissue bank repository tool for biospecimen inventory, tracking, and basic annotation. Version 1.2.2 of caTissue permits users to track the collection, storage, quality assurance, and distribution of specimens as well as the derivation and aliquotting of new specimens from an existing ones (e.g. for DNA analysis). It also allows users to find and request specimens that may then be used in molecular, correlative studies.
