Life Science—Microbial Culture Collections Data Integration Tasks

This paper presents interconnections between catalogs of microbial culture collections and biological databases inspected. Microbial Biological Resources Centers (mBRCs) provide Life Science (LS) biotechnology with fit-for-use microbiological resources related data consistent quality. To optimize the services, facilitate cumulative research, make crosschecks, avoid duplication efforts, must ensure that developed maintained are interconnected mBRC data. research shows that, at present, connections minimal. It proposes ways to plug into community. Such could open dialogue by making visible accessible from databases, reciprocally database records mBRC-aggregated catalog. For this purpose, we inspected most discovered on Internet. Each was characterized name, acronym, year last correction, uniform resource location (URL), area practical use (health system, agriculture, etc.), presence producer. The were in more detail terms lists partner ontologies used, access format computer programs, subjects. Our new metabase has collected 2667 which 1123 have
