Services
The LUMC Biobank Facility provides advice regarding rules and regulations to researchers and clinicians. Information concerning both existing and newly set-up biobank collections, informed consent procedure, and material processing and storage can be requested.
About us
The facility works in collaboration with LUMC’s Department of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine and Laboratory Research Support. Human body materials are collected, processed, stored, and distributed under controlled and standardised conditions.
The LUMC biobank Facility stores and distributes human body material only after approval of an independent Review Committee, which reviews whether the collection complies with all Biobank regulations.

The LUMC biobank Facility stores and distributes human body material only after approval of an independent Review Committee, which reviews whether the collection complies with all Biobank regulations.
Among others, these regulations state what the donor must be informed about, how their privacy is guaranteed, and which permissions should be given by the donor, and for which specific purpose the samples are stored.
We also offer consultancy regarding integration of scientific research within regular care to reduce registration burden and enhance efficiency.
