DBS achieved a milestone by getting the NORMA label of Swiss Biobanking Plattform for its infrastructure. The NORMA label confirms:
“Compliance with professional standards (e.g. ISO 20387:2018) is essential to perform our daily biobanking activities according to Good Biobanking Practices. After having successfully achieved the Vita label, our Biobank Infrastructure was recently awarded with the next step Norma label which demonstrates compliance with the Swiss Biobanking Platform (SBP) requirements for standardization of biobanking processes. This labellisation approach is part of our long-term strategy to provide high-quality samples to the research community
