Proper Citation: Arizona Cancer Center Tumor Bank (RRID:SCR_003544)
Description: TACMASS collects, preserves, and banks biospecimens obtained from Arizona Cancer Center surgical patients who are seen by University Medical Center surgeons and oncologists. Biospecimens collected at the time of surgery include fresh surgical tissue, blood and urine. Serum, plasma and genomic DNA are harvested from the whole blood. AZCC Members and collaborators may request the use of banked biospecimens through TACMASS. The patient's surgeon or oncologist is responsible for consenting the patient for submission of surgical specimens to the AZCC BioRepository (IRB #06-0609-04, Setsuko Chambers, PI). The surgeon and the Department of Pathology attending physicians and residents are responsible for identifying appropriate tissue for banking that will not compromise pathological diagnosis. Tumor and/or normal adjacent tissue, identified by gross examination, that will not be needed for pathological diagnosis are preserved by fixing in formalin, snap freezing, and/or fixing in RNALater. Histological diagnosis is rendered on each piece of formalin-fixed and snap frozen tissue by Hematoxylin and Eosin staining (H&E). Everyone involved in submitting specimens to the Tumor Bank must maintain a current CITI Certification.
