Ethical biobanking, built on real field experience.
IntenCiv BioVault is a new biobank division of IntenCiv Healthcare Services. We have spent years collecting samples and data for research biobanks across India. Now we are building our own: consented, traceable and privacy-first.
Population research needs population-specific samples
Much of the world's biomedical research draws on European and American cohorts. India's population is large and genetically diverse, with its own disease patterns, environments and lifestyles. Research that serves Indian patients needs well-governed, locally sourced samples with reliable clinical data.
Diverse population
Samples and data from patients across different regions, collected through our field network and diagnostic laboratory base.
Trust by design
No collection before ethics approval. Every participant gives informed consent that says plainly what happens to their sample and data.
Research-ready data
Samples linked to coded clinical information, so researchers can ask meaningful questions without exposing identities.
What a pharmaceutical or research partner gets
A biobank is judged on provenance, consent and quality, not only on numbers. We are building BioVault around what sponsors check.
Cohorts designed with you
Prospective, disease-specific or population cohorts, defined with your scientific team and your protocol.
Quality at the bench
Controlled preparation and cold storage, with every aliquot coded and tracked from collection to release.
Privacy and consent you can defend
Coded data, separated identities, consent that covers the intended use, and a clear withdrawal process.
Documents before the first sample
Before any collection starts, sponsors receive a due-diligence pack: approvals, consent forms, procedures and data-protection terms.
Traceable at every step
Every sample carries a code from consent to storage. Identities are held separately.
The rules we work by
Four commitments that apply to every collection, every sample and every partner.
Ethics approval
No collection begins until a registered ethics committee approves the protocol and consent form.
Cold storage
-80°C and -20°C storage with backed-up power and a sample tracking system.
Monitored storage
Continuous temperature monitoring with alarms is part of our storage standard.
ISO 20387
Quality systems built to the international biobanking standard.
