Subject: Brazilian ABS Electronic System available November 6th

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to report that the SisGen registration system will be available starting November 6th 2017. The registration system for using Brazil’s genetic heritage materials for research allows for Brazilian Biological material to be legally shipped abroad for research. SisGen was created to manage: registration (access to genetic heritage, access to associated traditional knowledge, shipping genetic heritage, and sending genetic heritage), notification (on finished products and use of reproductive material) and accreditation (for national institutions maintaining ex situ collections that hold genetic heritage).  The ministerial order is below for your reference.

On behalf of our colleagues in Brazil,

With Warm Regards,

Katie Barker
