Designed to Support ISBER Best Practices

Matrix Gemini Biobank Manager has been specifically developed to help biorepositories follow the ISBER Best Practices, and yet be highly adaptable.
Key ISBER Best Practices include:

  • Allocating and placing specimens
    Specify container type and multi-level hierarchies as you need with no limitation
  • Patient consent management
    Record and manage patient and specimen consent information
  • Specimen tracking, retrieval and shipping
    Record min/max shipping temperature and other key data as required
  • Two-step specimen moves that mimic real life processes
    Plan and confirm single, multiple or group specimen storage and moves
  • Management and calibration of equipment
    Log maintenance and calibration records of all laboratory equipment (including freezers)
  • Environmental monitoring to spot check fridge and freezer conditions
    Track storage temperatures across the biobank
  • Specimen location audits
    Ensure that specimens are where they should be through randomized location auditing
  • QA preventive and corrective action management to log actions and issues
    Ensure all non-conformances are logged, tracked and corrected
  • Record and manage required staff competency and training
    Automated staff competency checks ensure only trained staff perform key steps
