## Overview
sample-biobanking covers the professional management of biological sample collections: ethical
and legal foundations (consent, governance), standard operating procedures for collection and
processing, cold-chain logistics, inventory tracking (LIMS), and quality management. A biobank's
value is entirely in sample quality and annotation — poorly collected samples with thin metadata
are freezer filler, not a resource.
## When to use
- Establishing a biobank or biorepository: governance, infrastructure, SOPs.
- Consent design: broad vs tiered consent, re-contact, withdrawal, commercial use.
- Collection SOPs: pre-analytical variables (time to freeze, tube types, aliquoting).
- Cold chain: freezers, LN2, monitoring, backup power, disaster planning.
