CloudLIMS Publishes a Complimentary eBook on Regulatory Compliance for Biobanks

Wilmington, DE, February 06, 2023 --(PR.com)-- CloudLIMS, a leading provider of laboratory informatics, today published a free, open-access eBook titled “A Comprehensive Guide to Regulatory Compliance for Biobanks.”

Biobanks are responsible for maintaining high-quality, fit-for-purpose samples for use in research. They perform several functions including sample acquisition, preparation, storage, analysis, testing, and distribution. In addition to preserving the integrity of biospecimens throughout their lifecycle, biobanks are also expected to safeguard the Protected Health Information (PHI) of donors, manage donor consent, and ensure collected biospecimens are only used for the intended purpose. Since they handle sensitive biological materials and their associated data, national and international standards and regulatory compliance have been set to guide and govern them.

This eBook provides in-depth guidance on regulatory compliance for biobanks, be it any size. Regulations covered in the eBook include HIPAA, ISO 20387, 21 CFR Part 11, EU GDPR, ISBER & NCI Best Practices. It also delineates laws pertaining to the use of biosamples, data protection, and clinical trials in the EU, Finland, the UK, France, Germany, China, Brazil, and India. Finally, the eBook sheds light on how a LIMS can help biobanks meet compliance goals and follow quality standards with ease.

What is included in the eBook:

- The importance of regulatory compliance for biobanks
