The TSE Resource Centre - Continuation

传染性海绵状脑病资源中心（TSE RC）成立于1998年，负责收集、储存、鉴定、生产和分发一系列独特且价格合理的试剂，用于传染性海绵状脑病的基础和应用研究。主要作用是提供IAH研究的一系列专门研究试剂，其次是从其他来源确定和获取新的和额外的材料。TSE RC提供独特的材料范围。尽管有特别的起源和生产基础，但可以以商业成本的一小部分向公共资助的研究机构和商业合同供应。后者确保TSE研究中心获得部分资金。随着国际上对TSE的研究不断增加和持续，对一些具有专业知识、设施和资源的英国实验室的需求仍然很大，以生产高质量的TSE试剂和材料。TSE RC能够以具有成本效益的速度从一个来源收集，生产和供应关键和独特的试剂，从而最大限度地减少用户的工作量。它还通过使用专业人员进行材料生产和供应，最大限度地减少对主要研究团队的影响。TSE RC已通过ISO9001认证，并在危险品包装和运输方面进行了注册，以确保供应的质量和安全，以及公共安全。国际开发署内部对TSE方案提供的广泛和独特资源的需求继续扩大。TSE研究中心通过管理这些重要资源的供应，为英国、欧盟和国际TSE研究界提供支持。

A Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy Resource Centre (TSE RC) was established in 1998 to collect, store, characterise, produce and distribute an unique and affordable range of reagents needed for basic and applied research into TSE. The primary role was to provide a range of specialised research reagents from IAH research and secondly to identify and acquire new and additional materials from other sources. The TSE RC supplies an unique range of materials. Despite the ad hoc basis of origination and production, supply has been possible at a fraction of commercial cost to publicly funded research institutes and for commercial contracts. The latter ensure partial funding of the TSE RC. With the increased and sustained research internationally on TSE there remains a heavy demand on a few UK laboratories with the expertise, facilities and resources to produce quality TSE reagents and materials. The TSE RC enables the collection, production and supply of critical and unique reagents from one source at a cost effective rate to users, minimising their workload. It also minimises the impact on the primary research teams by using specialist staff for material production and supply. The TSE RC is accredited to ISO9001 and registered to package and transport Dangerous Goods so that quality and safety of supply, and public safety, are assured. Demand for the extensive and unique resources produced by the TSE programme within IAH continues to expand. The TSE RC underpins IAH, UK, EU and the international TSE research community by managing the supply of these vital resources.
