Biological Asset Management
Human cells and tissues contain unique biological information and may have medical or research relevance over time. Biological Asset Management (BAM) provides an approach to organising the preservation, handling, documentation and potential use of these resources throughout life.
Hemafund Assistance does not perform medical practice, cell cultivation, laboratory processing or biobanking. Such activities, where available, remain the responsibility of appropriately qualified and authorised partner providers.
From storage to ongoing management
Preserve
Help identify suitable authorised collection and storage partners.
Manage
Support record requests, documented permissions, transfer enquiries and partner communications.
Develop
Assist with enquiries to qualified providers about their documented service capabilities.
Connect
Coordinate appropriate administrative enquiries with relevant authorised professionals, when requested.
Biological materials
Depending on partner capabilities, enquiries may concern blood-derived materials, umbilical cord blood and tissue, and other eligible cells or tissues. Service availability is assessed individually. Storage does not promise future treatment.
Availability, handling requirements and permitted uses vary by jurisdiction and provider. Preservation does not guarantee any future medical application.
A long-term perspective
Scientific knowledge and regulatory pathways change over time. Our role is to help clients maintain access to appropriate coordination and information about their biological materials, without promising that a particular sample will have future therapeutic use.
Your decisions matter
Access to biological materials and associated information must respect the rights, permissions and consent of the relevant individuals, as well as legal and provider-specific requirements.
