National Marine Mammal Tissue Bank
Agreement Form
I, _______________________, agree to the following conditions upon acceptance of my
proposed research on tissues taken from the National Marine Mammal Tissue Bank:
1)
Research/findings based on use of the banked tissue will be reported to the National
Marine Mammal Tissue Bank, Marine Mammal Health and Stranding Response Program
Manager, and the specimen contributor;
2)
Tissue specimen samples that are used/released for genetic analyses (DNA sequencing)
are required to archive sequences in the National Center for Biotechnology Information’s
GenBank. Sequence accessions in GenBank should document the source, citing the
NMMTB Field ID number that identifies the animal;
3)
Credit and acknowledgment will be given to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS),
U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Mineral Management Service (MMS),
the National Marine Mammal Tissue Bank (NMMTB), and the specimen collector for
use of the banked tissues. I shall insert the following acknowledgment in all publications,
abstracts or presentations based on research using the banked tissue:
The specimens used in this study were collected by the contributor and provided by the
National Marine Mammal Tissue Bank, which is maintained in the National
Biomonitoring Specimen Bank at NIST, and which is operated under the direction of
NMFS with the collaboration of USGS, USFWS, MMS, and NIST through the Marine
Mammal Health and Stranding Response Program (and the Alaska Marine Mammal
Tissue Archival Project [if the samples are from Alaska]).
