Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the significance of preserving and sharing pathogenic microorganisms like SARS-CoV-2. China has abundant microbial resources, however due to the late start of preservation work, there is still a gap in the construction of pathogenic microorganism preservation system compared to major preservation institutions in other countries. This paper adopts the method of literature research, in combination with statistics from official website, compares and analyzes the operational management, organizational structure, and sharing capability of the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) of the United States of America, the NITE Biological Resource Center (NBRC) of Japan, and the Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen (DSMZ) of Germany, and summarizes their mature management experience, so as to provide suggestions for the system construction, operational management, and resource-sharing service of pathogenic microorganism preservation system in China.
