How is the biosample tracked in the GenVault system?
Each biosample is automatically labeled in two forms when stored in a GenPlate, via a physical barcode on the GenPlate as well as via a biological tag, called GenCode, that coexists on the media with the DNA sample itself. This biological tag matches the plate barcode and remains with the genomic DNA eluted from the element throughout each processing step, even in solution. Each biosample’s GenCode allows it to be linked with its de-identified clinical data and requested via a Web-based interface.
