Human Biological Samples
Effective immediately, we will be using the Scientist.com platform for HBS; the ability to order HBS as catalog items in Ariba is no longer available. For definition,
Human Biological Samples include but not limited to:
- Human tissue—fresh, frozen, fixed or processed (e.g., sectioned)
- All human blood (e.g., peripheral or umbilical cord) and blood byproducts (e.g, serum, plasma, buffy coat)
- All human biofluids (e.g., sputum, urine, bile)
- Human primary cells derived from human biosamples
- DNA derived from individual donor
A company-wide HBS Policy and SOP is being created. Until then, the new process is as follows:
Scientists are responsible for:
- Submitting requests for HBS using the Scientist.com platform. Please make every effort to work with already approved HBS suppliers there.
- You will see the badge for approved suppliers
- If you wish to work with Takeda- approved suppliers who are not on the platform, please let me know. They can either be onboarded or else work through the lengthier internal processes in place.
- Selecting the vendor and requesting the SOW
- Downloading the SOW and sending it to me
Next steps:
- I will submit a ticket and work with the CMAS team to track all activities for internal review by legal and privacy functions.
- This will include submission of an ICF template submitted by the vendor
- When all internal requirements are met, I will approve the SOW in Scientist.com.
- Once approved, requestors will be able to accept the SOW – but not before then.
- The CMAS team will use the Scientist.com PR to requisition the PO.
- Requestors and Scientist.com will be notified when the PO has been issued.

| 찍는 도구 (hardware, equipment) | Resolution quantifies how close lines can be to each other and still be visibly resolved. | Pixel (the smallest controllable element of a picture) count, | Spatial resolution: 기계에 쓰는 말임. in radiology refers to the ability of the imaging modality to differentiate two objects (=blurriness and sharpness, clarity). how closely lines can be resolved performance characteristic, 임. Although the clinical gamma camera can provide a tomographic resolution of about 10 mm, some preclinical SPECT scanners can provide a submillimeter spatial resolution. Image quality: Scatter correction and resolution recovery are also applied to improve resolution of SPECT images → anatomical delination Detection sensitivity | 31P-MRIS: no standardized equipment (even ones) 31P-MRS: Spatial resolution does not be essentially we would be getting a signal from area of the surface coil, most typically occipital The spatial resolution of the PET images is typically ~ 4-5 mm, and the CT images is ~ 1 mm. |

| ease (건강 vs 질병) | Signal window | is there a clear enough deficit that we can pick up a (partial?) reversal in a small study? Which parameter should we focus on? However those details can be addressed to some extent in preclinical studies. So I would definitely be in favor of a thorough pre-clinical evaluation of the methodology and treatment hypothesis would be necessary before considering any translational | ||

|---|---|---|---|
| Produced with a cyclotron? | yes shorter imaging times | Yes | |
| half life | 20.4 min, | 110 min, (five times longer than 11C) → Allowing multiple patients preparaton | 1 h |
| When no on-site cyclotron, feasible? (ie regional delivery feasible?) | Unfeasible (half life 짧아 , 운송동중에 없어짐) Dartmouth case | Feasible: 18F-labeled tracers may be produced at regional cyclotrons and delivered to imaging centers | |
| radiation dose? | Possibly lower radiation doses. |
the affinity of the radiotracer relative to the concentration of binding site present in the target tissue is the most important characteristic of site-specific radiotracers

Immunity
