  • Publication number: 20140162257
    Abstract: Systems and methods for biological sample processing are described. A production line extracts genomic DNA from a biological sample, amplifies target components of the sample and produces sequence data for markers from the amplified components. The markers are associated with tests identified in a requisition received with the sample and some markers may be associated with unrequisitioned tests. A sample information management system (SIMS) controls and monitors the production line and subsequent analysis of the results using information in a quality control (QC) database to validate the results. A repository comprising the QC database and a research database receives and aggregates the results without identifying the source of the sample. A portal may be provided to provide access to the research database to a plurality of external contributors. Contributors can selectively provide additional research data and data can be processed using data mining and curation tools.
