A Multi-Center Protocol for Obtaining and Storing Human Samples for Immediate or Future Microbial, Immune, or Host Microbe Scientific Study

Southwest Regional Wound Care Center

Overview

The intent of this protocol is to salvage human-related material that is normally destined for destruction, so it can be used in infection-related scientific studies.

This clinical material can be studied in order to better understand the molecular, cellular, or ecological components of the infected or potentially infected tissue or device. These studies may be able to provide important insights into the keys of chronic infections, complex infections, medical biofilms, pathogen ecology, and healing.
