WORKFLOW

BEVITAL´s  workflow of sample handling and data processing has been optimized with respect to pre-analytical stability and data quality.

Home > Samples > Workflow

1. Evaluation

Evaluation of your project by email or video conference is highly recommended to deliver optimal data from  your precious biobank samples.​

2. Transportation

Samples have to be shipped on dry ice by recommended courier and agreed time point to avoid loss or thawing of samples.

3. Arrival at BEVITAL

Samples are stored immediately at -80°C to guarantee highest pre-analytical biomarker stability.​

4. Sample aliquotation

Samples are split into aliquots for analyses on different analytical platforms.

5. Sample analysis

Samples are analyzed and remaining material is stored at -80°C. Customer has to decide, if remaining material has to be destroyed or returned.

6. Data processing

Mass spectra are processed by in-house developed QC software and results stored as FileMaker database.

7. Quality control

External quality controls from DEKS, DEQAS, KEQAS, ERNDIM and LABQUALITY included in each set of samples are checked to monitor platform performance and to avoid assay errors and failures.​

8. Data analysis and report

Detailed lab data report is generated giving an overview of the results, assay performance, and reasons behind missing data, if any.

Optional data analysis is offered from basic statistical analyses to more advanced approaches.
