  1. “Biorepository” Workshop, Milan, Italy, October 22, 2002 Biological sample Collection, Processing and Banking for Academic Centers Nina Holland School of Public Health, University of California, Berkeley, CA ninah@uclink4.berkeley.edu

  2. Superfund Center Biomarkers of Carcinogenesis Project 1 New Methods Samples Data Arsenic Biomarker Epidemiology Project 3 Chemical Exposures And Leukemia Risk Project 2 Core B Biomarker Lab Samples Samples Data Data Management System Information of Relevance to Children’s Health Samples Samples Core D Outreach: Children’s Environmental Health Network Core C Computer and Statistical Support Determinants for Chromosomally Defective Human Sperm Project 4

  3. A Community-University Partnership Children’s Hospital Oakland Research Institute

  4. Goals of the database system: • Centralize information • Optimize the use of storage space • Minimize errors and inconsistencies • Facilitate sample tracking (bar-coding) • Be compatible with other databases • Allow flexibility and expansion

  5. Benefits of Biorepository • Maximize the utility of the specimens as new tests are developed. • Provide a specimen bank for future intra-Center collaboration. • Provide a specimen bank for development of new methods. • Source of numerous student projects. • Better chances for extramural funding

  6. Biorepository at UC Berkeley: • Whole blood • Buccal cells • Urine and urothelial cells • Blood (plasma, serum, viable • lymphocytes, COMETstabilized, folate stablized, • granulocytes etc.) • Cryopreserved lymphocytes • Isolated RNA and DNA • Plasma • Red blood cells • Blood smears • Breast milk • These samples come from selected populations including pregnant women, children, lab volunteers, children with disease • Dust samples

  7. Present Status CHAMACOSSamples Collected

  8. Biorepository includes: • Inventory of already accumulated samples • In progress , samples in the process of collection • Provisions for samples from future projects

  9. Sample Sources for Biorepository • Projects: 3-7 • 2. Study subjects per project: 15-500 • upcoming several 1000’s • 3. Number of aliquots per individual: 12-70

  10. Whole blood processing for Superfund project CA Tubes x1 4oC 9 ml media 1 ml WB CA Harvest Protocol CA Slides x10 -20oC Whole Blood Cultures 1ml x2 Plasma -80oC 2 ml 1 ml Green Top (Heparin) 1 ml CA MN Harvest Protocol 1.8ml x2 Lymph Cryo 1 ml MN Slides x10 -20oC MN 0.5 ml x2 WB -80oC 9 ml media 1 ml WB 1.8ml x2 Gran Cryo 200 ul 200 ul 9 ml 1ml x2 RBC -80oC ~400 ul Comet Assay 100ul, x2, -80oC 100ul x2 Fol -80oC Blood Smears x6 -20oC Remaining WB Ficoll Isolation 1340rpm, 30min Red Top 0.5 ml x2 Serum -80oC UCB Lab Centrifuge 1200rpm 10min CHO UCSF 0.5 ml x2 Clot -80oC 3 ml http://ehs.sph.berkeley.edu/superfund/

  11. How to Improve Sample Collection and Processing • Stabilizing buffers for retrieval of components • Maximum use of valuable samples • Viability of cells for cryopreservation • Tissue culture • Storing of multiple aliquots • Safe handling procedures (collection, transportation and processing)

  12. Microarray Technology and Mutational Bioassays Require Large Amounts of DNA or RNA • 10 ml blood contains 1-2 x 107 lymphocytes • 10 ml blood contains 200-600 µg leukocyte DNA RNA yieldDNA yield Resting Go lymphocytes 2 - 3 pg/cell 6 - 8 pg/cell Dividing lymphocytes 4 - 9 pg/cell 7 - 9 pg/cell (in culture)

  13. Requirements • Space: • Centralized short-term processing and storage 600ft2, • Long-term storage in the different location, 400ft2 • Freezers(in the next 2-3 years): up to 40 • Nitrogen tanks: up to 20 • Bench space and Flow hoods • Security monitoring provisions • Database terminals

  14. Components of Database Management System: Labels Hardware Software

  15. Label type(cryo, size, orientation, quality) Barcode type(1D, 2D, density) Printer (200dpi, 300dpi…) Software Database Scanner (Attached/portable) Choices and Decisions…

  16. Sample Master File (original samples entry)

  17. Sample Master File (final aliquots generated)

  18. Process Templates

  19. Future directions • Expansion of the Superfund and CHAMACOS Biorepositories to include needs of other researchers at the School of Public Health • Upgrade of the database system to a higher capacity
