Samples and biobank

Every sample labelled, placed and accounted for

Collect samples at the visit, print their labels, place them in freezer boxes and ship them, with a chain of custody that continues after database lock.

Collected at the visit, labelled at once

Collecting a sample creates its planned aliquots, their IDs and their labels together. One scan of a label’s QR code opens that sample anywhere in ARC.

  • Label templates and sizes for your printers
  • Print from the browser, as PDF sheets, or through the print agent on a clinic PC
  • A label never prints twice by accident

Freezers you lay out yourself

Build each freezer from a template, down to its racks and boxes, and see every box as a map. Scan aliquots into a box, move a whole box, or drag one position to another.

  • Boxes kept for a study, or described with your own fields
  • Find any sample by scanning or typing its code

A chain of custody nobody can rewrite

Every handling, move and shipment adds to an append-only chain for that sample. It keeps going after the study locks, so the biobank stays accountable for years.

  • Shipments under a transfer agreement, received item by item at the lab
  • Sample requests approved, reserved and picked into a shipment
  • Laboratories see only the aliquots in their custody
