| Name: | Resource:Hunt Biobank |
| Description: | HUNT Databank is one of the most modern and extensive international biobanks, storing whole blood and DNA from 200,000 individuals, serum and plasma samples from more than 100,000 individuals as well as urine, RNA tubes, cells, buffy coat and Na-heparin tubes for environmental analysis for as many as 50,000 individuals.
All bio-specimens from the HUNT surveys are collected, processed and stored at the HUNT Biobank in Levanger, which was officially opened in March 2007. The Biobank is a new laboratory and storage facility (2000 square meters) specially designed for the purpose and equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure, including a fully automated DNA storage facility, in which all samples are stored at the appropriate temperature. The National CONOR Biobank is located on the same site, where it serves as a central research repository for DNA samples from all the largest Norwegian health surveys. These make up “the Cohorts of Norway” (CONOR), which include samples from more than 200,000 individuals.
