Description:
Serum, plasma, random urine and buffy coat for DNA extraction will be collected at the baseline visit on all recruited patients that consent to biobanking such that future ancillary studies can be performed. Samples will be processed and frozen at -80 °C, and will be stored for up to 25 years with participant consent. Tests that may be run on stored samples include metabolomics, peptidomics, proteomics, and podocyte microparticle analyses should additional funding be obtained. Samples will be collected at each site and frozen. Periodically samples will be sent to the Canadian Biosample Repository at the University of Alberta for long term storage.
