NCBI BioSample

Other names: BioSample, NCBI BioSample/BioProject, BioSample at the NCBI

The NCBI BioSample database stores submitter-supplied descriptive information, or metadata, about the biological materials from which data stored in NCBI’s primary data archives are derived. NCBI’s archives host data from diverse types of samples from any species, so the BioSample database is similarly diverse; typical examples of a BioSample include a cell line, a primary tissue biopsy, an individual organism or an environmental isolate. The BioSample database promotes the use of structured and consistent attribute names and values that describe what the samples are as well as information about their provenance, where appropriate.
