AMDeC is a consortium of 22 pre-eminent academic medical research institutions in the New York region.
As part of its services, BioStorage will conduct on-site audits of AMDeC Member institutions to assess their needs and create a customized sample management strategy through outsourced or on-site solutions.
AMDeC members also will have the ability to leverage BioStorage Technologies’ web-based tracking and sample management system (ISISS) Intelligent Specimen Inventory Storage System which allows users to monitor sample status and activity, view audit trails and documentation, schedule shipments, and retrieve data on stored samples.
AMDeC president Maria Mitchell said by offering members discounted access to services provided by BioStorage Technologies, AMDeC is helping to significantly reduce monthly expenditures and investments in capital equipment and facilities that can rapidly escalate operating costs.
BioStorage Technologies COO Lori Ball said the firm recognizes the critical importance of ensuring secure, reliable, traceable access to biological specimens stored to support research advancements.
"The same expertise and care we use in managing millions of samples for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies will be applied to create sample management solutions for AMDeC Members in the academic research setting," Ball said.
