nrgr_bio_id

string(14)

Case sensitive.

Definition: IBX (formerly RUCDR) sample id, AKA RUID

Sample value: 03C19340

IDs are usually alphanumeric.

ind_id

string(30)

Sample value: 10-10073

material

string(10)

Valid Values:

DNA-EP = DNA Externally Produced

DNA-LCL = DNA from Lymphoblastoid cell line

DNA-Saliva = DNA from saliva

DNA-WB = DNA from Whole Blood

DNA-EPBC = DNA from Externally Produced Buffy Coat

miRNA-WB = miRNA from Whole Blood

NGNCDNA = non-coding DNA

RNA-LCL = RNA from Lymphoblastoid cell line

RNA-WB = RNA from Whole Blood

LCL = Lymphoblastoid cell line

CPL = Cryopreserved Lymphocytes

FCL = Fibroblast cell line

IPSC = Induced Pluripotent Cell Line

EPPL = Externally produced Plasma

OE = Olfactory Epithelial

PL = Plasma

Urine

amount

decimal

For DNA-WB, DNA-EP, DNA-Saliva <= 5. For DNA-LCL <= 25. (unit = µg)

For miRNA-WB, NGNCDNA, RNA-LCL, RNA-WB, EPPL, PL, and Urine <= 1 (unit = aliquot)

For cell line materials LCL, CPL, FCL, IPSC, and OE the amount column will be ignored

Usually specified in 4 decimals, 2 is acceptable

µg or aliquot

cell_type

string(7)

Valid Values:

LIVE

FROZEN

Required if material = LCL, CPL, FCL, IPSC, or OE

For all other materials the cell_type column will be ignored
