BMRC Archival Sample Repository

The BMRC Archival Sample Repository, an initiative supported by iCORE serves as a centralized, secure, and long‑term repository for the storage and management of biological specimens. The repository plays a key role in preserving valuable research materials, enabling current and future scientific investigations across A*STAR’s research ecosystem.

Located at the Biopolis Genome building, the facility operates under standardized protocols to ensure the integrity, traceability, and quality of archived samples throughout their lifecycle. By maintaining robust documentation and controlled storage conditions, the repository supports reproducibility, data integrity, and responsible sample stewardship.

The BMRC Archival Sample Repository provides free access to all BMRC research institutes, supporting both ongoing projects and retrospective studies. Through its centralized infrastructure and professional operational support, the repository enhances collaboration, maximizes the long‑term value of biological resources, and contributes to the advancement of high‑quality biomedical research within A*STAR.
