It is now recognized that measures to address EDI in research can have a positive impact on the value of health research outputs and health outcomes based on this knowledge. EDI strategies, guidelines, and education and training are now embraced by national research funders and local research organizations. However, these initiatives are very broad and not specific to the field of biobanking. We have, therefore, set out to develop and implement a formal research biobank EDI action plan. This article describes the creation of an EDI action plan that provides an intentional approach to identifying and achieving EDI actions and priorities for our research biobank. The plan is framed by the definitions of EDI and an understanding of the topics, issues, and groups within the EDI field. The plan is founded on a set of guiding principles and delineates three pillars of work that align with team, participant, and researcher domains. The plan identifies a set of 31 actions that are categorized by implementation time frames, in order to positively address EDI issues across these pillars. The completion of these actions will help us to mitigate against bias and enrich our biobanking and research services. Ultimately, our goal is to realize more diverse participation in research supported by our biobank. This would support health research to explore and better understand differences in disease biology and the efficacy of medical treatments across all people.</p>","PeriodicalId":55358,"journal":{"name":"Biopreservation and Biobanking","volume":" ","pages":"137-144"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141472836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As biobanks require consented participation from thousands of individual donors, much research has focused on the values and preferences of new and prospective donors who are actively contemplating an invitation to participate in the collection. Few studies, however, have focused on participants' opinions about their biobank participation in the months and years following enrollment. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We conducted a survey in a large, established biobank and evaluated participants' levels of decisional regret regarding their decision to enroll in the biobank. <b><i>Results:</i></b> We found very low levels of decisional regret among established biobank participants. Multivariable regression analysis found that age, length of time in the biobank, lower educational attainment, inadequate health literacy, and previous invitations to research participation were all significant predictors of elevated regret. <b><i>Discussion:</i></b> Among those with elevated regret, several demographic factors may point to elevated likelihood of decisional regret.

Following roundtable discussions at the 2021 and 2023 meetings, the 2024 ISBER meeting, which was held in Melbourne, Australia, featured a symposium, workshop, and posters dedicated to decarbonization, highlighting its growing significance on a global scale. The introduction of the term \"green biobanking\" at this meeting marked a pivotal moment, revealing that current decarbonization efforts in biobanking are largely piecemeal and lack a comprehensive, strategic approach. The goal of this article is to clarify the concept of green biobanking and update the community on the latest developments, while carefully outlining potential pathways for future innovation without pressuring biobankers to adopt existing technologies. The discussion includes insights from experts across various sectors. These include experts from the World Health Organization, biobanks in high-income countries, and low- and middle-income countries, as well as from the Canadian academia, preservation technology, industry, artificial intelligence, and education sectors.

After 1 month of storage, the frozen semen samples in straws were thawed and evaluated in terms of viability, mitochondrial membrane potential, kinematic parameters, total and progressive motility, plasma membrane integrity, lipid peroxidation, and DNA fragmentation. The findings indicated that 25-100 μg/mL of silymarin significantly improved viability and mitochondrial membrane potential while reducing the stallion sperm lipid peroxidation, DNA fragmentation, and apoptosis compared with the control group (<i>p</i> < 0.05). Silymarin concentrations of 75 μg/mL and 100 μg/mL significantly increased progressive motility and plasma membrane integrity (<i>p</i> < 0.05).

For this purpose, ovarian slices were obtained from abattoired juvenile lambs and randomly distributed to the following groups: fresh, toxicity, vitrified (control), and three treatment groups in two experiments. Vitamin E, vitamin C, or vitamin E + C was added to the vitrification media alone in the first experiment and added to all vitrification, warming, and culture media in the second experiment. Finally, the treated tissues were cultured <i>in vitro</i> for 12 hours. The histological analysis showed that single or combined use of vitamins E and C increases intact preantral follicles in comparison to the control in two experiments (<i>p</i> < 0.05), and simultaneous use of vitamins E and C had a synergistic effect on increasing the percentage of normal preantral follicles in experiment 2 (<i>p</i> < 0.05). Due to the better results in Experiment 2, stromal cell density, antioxidant activity, and molecular evaluation were followed only in this experiment. The vitamin E + C group had higher stromal cell density compared with control group (<i>p</i> < 0.05). Vitamin E strengthened antioxidant capacity compared with the control and vitamin C groups (<i>p</i> < 0.05). This effect was exacerbated when used in combination with vitamin C (<i>p</i> < 0.05). The expression of all evaluated genes (<i>BMP4, BMP15</i>, <i>GDF9</i>, and <i>KITLG</i>) was significantly increased in ovarian tissue treated with vitamin E + C compared with the control group (<i>p</i> < 0.05). This increase was also observed in <i>BMP4, GDF9</i>, and <i>KITLG</i> genes compared with the vitamin C group (<i>p</i> < 0.05).
