Scope of coverage

DEFINITION (SPECIMEN): Any material sample:

  1. taken from a biological entity, living or dead, or
  2. taken from anything at a location (environmental)
  3. taken from a physical object

Biospecimen can contain one or more components including but not limited to cellular molecules, cells, tissues, organs, body fluids, embryos, and body excretory products (source: NCIt, modified).

The specimen resource covers substances used for diagnostic and environmental testing.

RIM scope

  • Role: Specimen (RoleClass=SPM)
    • Entity (player): Material (EntityClass="MAT")
    • Entity (scoper): Choice - Person, Non-Human Living Subject, Material)
  • Entity: Place (EntityClass="PLC")

Resource appropriateness

Specimens are primarily of importance in healthcare for diagnostic testing and in public health for environmental testing. Because of the frequent biologic nature of specimens, they are uniquely identified. Additionally, specimens are tracked, transported, and stored, sometimes for years.
