基于网络的数据库，用于管理跨区域组织学研究机构的组织标本。

BACKGROUND

In the setting of a histological research core facility sample tracking and project specific archiving of tissue specimens and communication of related data is of central importance.

DESCRIPTION

Over a 24-month period 10 laboratories from two transregional research centers submitted in excess of 3000 tissue samples for histological processing and evaluation to our core facility. A web based database was set up to overcome the logistical problem of managing samples with inconsistent, duplicate and missing labels and to allow for efficient sample tracking, archiving and communication with the collaborating research laboratories. The database allows the users to remotely generate unique sample identifiers and enter sample annotation prior to sample processing. Furthermore the database facilitates communication about experimental set-up results and media files such as histological images.

CONCLUSION

Our newly constructed web based portal is an important tool for the management of research samples of our histological core facility and facilitates significantly interdisciplinary and transregional research. It is freely available for scientific use.

背景

在组织学研究核心设施中，样本跟踪和项目特定的组织标本存档以及相关数据的交流至关重要。

描述

在 24 个月的时间里，来自两个跨区域研究中心的 10 个实验室向我们的核心设施提交了超过 3000 份组织样本进行组织学处理和评估。建立了一个基于网络的数据库，以克服管理标签不一致、重复和缺失的样本的后勤问题，并实现对样本的有效跟踪、存档以及与合作研究实验室的沟通。该数据库允许用户在样本处理之前远程生成唯一的样本标识符并输入样本注释。此外，该数据库还方便了关于实验设置结果和媒体文件（如组织学图像）的交流。
