Bacterial Contamination of Blood DNA Samples is Associated with Donor's Health Condition.

abstract：:Biobanks are now in the spotlight as key enablers supporting preclinical, clinical, and environmental research. Awareness of their value has increased along with the need for these infrastructures to be sustained through business-focused practices. Following our 2017 pilot survey on biobank business planning, we initi...
