Description

The BioBank is a jointly-curated ancillary collection of tissues derived from the established living stocks collection (i.e., the animals comprising the historic and current DLC primate breeding colony). It is a vouchered primary data source for biological research that is available to the scientific community. The current BioBank consists of >25K frozen and fixed samples from over 1,400 individuals representing 37 species, most of which are strepsirrhines. The DLC BioBank includes many types of specimens (e.g., cadavers, blood, organ tissue, sperm plugs, urine, and feces) available to researchers at a modest fee. These samples are associated with animal records, many of them digital.  Therefore, for example, data derived from these samples can be linked to life history.  Specimens are banked opportunistically from the living colony during routine physical exams or other veterinary procedures. Tissues are also collected from animals at necropsy. They are preserved in a variety of ways suitable for DNA, RNA, histological, and anatomical analysis.The DLC is actively working to digitize and mobilize the data contained with the BioBank to GBIF and other data aggregators. Given the scope of this task, no time frame has been set for the completion of this process. If you are a qualified researcher interested in obtaining biological samples, please contact the Research Department at dlcbiosamples@duke.edu to discuss sample availability and to request the appropriate approval forms.
