Biobanking


Autoscribe’s biobank and biorepository management solution is an example of our highly configurable Matrix Tracker software
specifically for biobanking applications. Each solution is unique to the organization that requires it. The solutions are not provided by writing custom code they are configured using a set of unique configuration tools. These tools are used by either Autoscribe staff or the end-users to configure the initial solution and can then be used to add further configuration or re-configure the existing system to meet evolving future requirements.

Biobanks and biorepositories are a key element in a growing number of organizations in biotechnology, pharmaceutical and medical research. The ability to manage an ever increasing number of bio-samples (blood, tissue, DNA etc.) and to comply with the regulatory requirements, such as HTA, GCLP, MHRA and national regulations, is a high priority for all organizations working in this area. Samples need to be tracked at all times and it is essential to be able to record the complete genealogy for all samples and track the aliquots, pooled samples and derivatives of each sample. Other requirements may include shipping management, electronic signature verified transfer and final sample disposition.

 

 

Features of the Matrix Tracker solution include:

·         Compliance with regulatory authority guidelines (e.g. HTA, GCLP, MHRA, FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and other similar requirements)

·         Full sample tracking including parent/child samples, aliquots, derivatives etc.

·         Complete location recording e.g. room, freezer, shelf, container and container position

·         Sample check-in, check-out, quarantined and in-transit sample notification

·         Storage location auditing and reconciliation

·         Chain-of-custody reporting

·         Audit trail of all changes

·         Barcode compatibility

·         Desktop and web deployment with unique “one-time” configuration

Matrix Tracker is a unique software product due to its powerful configuration tools. They provide the ability to keep your system in step with changing user and regulatory requirements, without going back to the system developers for additional and often costly changes. This both extends system life and reduces overall cost of ownership. Some Matrix software solutions have been in use for almost twenty years and during that period have kept in step with organizational and regulatory changes and with software platform changes using the unique configuration tools.
