Laboratory Protocols For Sample Processing and Storage to Ensure Sample Integrity

Abstract

For obtaining accurate and dependable findings in the nutritional status randomized controlled trials (RCTs), it is crucial to meticulously design and execute the collection and management of clinical data. This article is a comprehensive guide to the most effective methods for collecting and analyzing biospecimens, as well as the essential principles of managing clinical data. It covers important topics such as preparing for and initiating a research, collecting and entering data, ensuring data accuracy, and finalizing the database. The reader is advised to consult other resources for information that might aid in the preparation and execution of human randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The techniques and tactics outlined are anticipated to enhance the caliber of data generated in human nutrition research, which may subsequently be used to bolster food and nutrition policy.
