availability of stored serum, plasma, and
urine samples obtained from
participants in the National Health and
Nutrition Examination Survey
(NHANES) and the proposal parameters
and fee schedule for use. The National
Health and Nutrition Examination
Survey (NHANES) is one of a series of
health-related surveys conducted by
CDC’s National Center for Health
Statistics (NCHS).
SUMMARY:
The stored NHANES biologic
samples are available August 12, 2021.
The fee structure for these samples is
effective August 12, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NHANES
is a program of periodic surveys
conducted by NCHS. Examination
surveys conducted since 1960 by NCHS
have provided national estimates of the
health and nutritional status of the U.S.
civilian non-institutionalized
population. The goals of NHANES are:
(1) To estimate the number and percent
of persons in the U.S. population and
designated subgroups with selected
diseases and risk factors; (2) to monitor
trends in the prevalence, awareness,
treatment and control of selected
diseases; (3) to monitor trends in risk
behaviors and environmental exposures;
(4) to analyze risk factors for selected
diseases; (5) to study the relationship
between diet, nutrition and health; (6) to
explore emerging public health issues
and new technologies; and (7) to
establish and maintain a national
probability sample of baseline
information on health and nutrition
status.
For NHANES cycles prior to the
2021–22 cycle, the survey oversamples
the two largest race/ethnicity groups,
non-Hispanic black and Mexican
American (and all Hispanic since 2007–
08). In 2011–2020, NHANES also
oversampled the Asian race/ethnicity
group.
DATES:
Sample Availability
Samples are available from NHANES
III, a periodic survey that was
conducted from 1988–1994 (see: https://
wwwn.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/nhanes3/
default.aspx for more information on
NHANES III), and the continuous
NHANES, with data release in two-year
44367
cycles starting in 1999–2000 through the
2019-March 2020 (Coronavirus Disease
2019 (COVID–19) pre-pandemic) (Table
A) collection. NCHS is making both
collections available for study
proposals.
Approximately 30,000 individuals
were examined in NHANES III, which
began in the fall of 1988, and ended in
the fall of 1994. Investigators can
analyze samples from this survey in two
phases. Phase 1 was conducted from
October 1988 to October 1991 and Phase
2 began October 1991 and ended
October 1994.
Beginning in 1999, NHANES became
a continuous, annual survey with
examination of approximately 5,000
individuals a year and data release
every two years. Samples from a single
year of the survey will only be provided
in emergency situations (outbreaks).
Projects must use two-year cycles or
multiple two-year cycles for their
studies (i.e., 1999–2000, 2001–2002
etc.).
Serum, plasma, and urine samples are
stored in two biorepositories. Samples
that were initially used for laboratory
assays included in the surveys, that
were stored at ¥70°C and that have
been through at least two freeze-thaw
cycles, are considered surplus samples.
They are stored at a commercial
biorepository under contract to NCHS.
In addition, another set of serum,
plasma, and urine samples were also
stored immediately after collection at
¥80°C or below in vapor-phase liquid
nitrogen. These samples have not
undergone a freeze-thaw cycle and are
considered pristine samples. The CDC
Biorepository (CBR) is the long-term
repository for the pristine NHANES
serum, plasma, and urine samples.
NCHS is making both pristine and
surplus collections available for study
proposals. Please see the NHANES
Biospecimen Program series report for
details about collection and storage of
serum, plasma, and urine samples
