Biobanks are facilities that store specimens, such as bodily fluids and tissues, typically along with specimen annotation and clinical data. OBIB is based on a subset of the Ontology for Biomedical Investigation (OBI), has the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) as its upper ontology, and is developed following OBO Foundry principles. The first version of OBIB resulted from the merging of two existing biobank-related ontologies, OMIABIS and biobank ontology. download_owl: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/obib.owl example: 0000389 homepage: https://github.com/biobanking/biobanking keywords: - biobank - health science - obo - ontology license: CC-BY-4.0 mappings: aberowl: OBIB biocontext: OBIB bioportal: OBIB fairsharing: FAIRsharing.bxc508 obofoundry: obib ols: obib ontobee: OBIB name: Ontology for Biobanking pattern: ^\d{7}$ preferred_prefix: OBIB prefix: obib providers: [] publications: - doi: 10.1186/s13326-016-0068-y pmc: PMC4855778 pubmed: '27148435' title: OBIB-a novel ontology for biobanking year: 2016 rdf_uri_format: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBIB_$1 repository: https://github.com/biobanking/biobanking synonyms: [] uri_format: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBIB_$1 version: '2023-04-05'
