Material type
Blood that has not been separated into its various components; blood that has not been modified except for the addition of an anticoagulant.
boolean
A long linear double-stranded polymer formed from nucleotides attached to a deoxyribose backbone and found in the nucleus of a cell; associated with the transmission of genetic information.
boolean
The material discharged from the bowel during defecation. It consists of undigested food, intestinal mucus, epithelial cells, and bacteria.
boolean
Cells of a single type (human, animal, or plant) that have been adapted to grow continuously in the laboratory and are used in research.
boolean
An isolated biological agent causing disease; a disease producer e.g. virus, bacterium, prion, other microorganism etc.
boolean
Any other type of material taken from a biological entity, e.g. amniotic fluid, cerebrospinal fluid (CSV), mitochondrial RNA.
boolean
Plasma is the fluid (acellular) portion of the circulating blood, as distinguished from the serum that is the fluid portion of the blood obtained by removal of the fibrin clot and blood cells after coagulation.
boolean
One of two types of nucleic acid made by cells. RNA contains information that has been copied from DNA (the other type of nucleic acid). Cells make several different forms of RNA, and each form has a specific job in the cell. Many forms of RNA have functions related to making proteins. RNA is also the genetic material of some viruses instead of DNA. RNA can be made in the laboratory and used in research studies. Also called ribonucleic acid.
boolean
A clear liquid secreted into the mouth by the salivary glands and mucous glands of the mouth; moistens the mouth and starts the digestion of starches.
boolean
The clear portion of the blood that remains after the removal of the blood cells and the clotting proteins.
boolean
An anatomical structure consisting of similarly specialized cells and intercellular matrix, aggregated according to genetically determined spatial relationships, performing a specific function.
boolean

Collection type
The type of the sample collection. A case-control study design compares two groups of subjects: those with the disease or condition under study (cases) and a very similar group of subjects who do not have the disease or condition (controls). Source EMBL (EFO). http://www.ebi.ac.uk/efo/EFO_0001427
boolean
The type of the sample collection. A form of longitudinal study for the analysis of risk factors following a group of people who do not have a disease, and uses correlations to determine the absolute risk of subject contraction. Source Wikipedia (rewritten).
boolean
The type of the sample collection. A type of observational study that involves data collection from a population, or a representative subset, at one specific point in time. Source Wikipedia.
boolean
The type of the sample collection. Research studies involving repeated observations of the same entity over time. In the biobank context, longitudinal studies sample a group of people in a given time period, and study them at intervals by the acquisition and analyses of data and/or samples over time.
