Abstract
Research biomaterial banks (biobanks) are institutions which collect and prepare samples of human bodily substances (e.g. cells, tissues, body fluids and isolates from them), store personal, health and problem-related data of donors, collate samples and data and make them available in a suitable form for research purposes. The valid legal norms for the utilization and running of biobanks are complex and sometimes necessitate an assessment by the legal guardian.
