rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://support.datacite.org/docs/about-igsn-ids-for-material-samples" target="_blank">International Generic Sample Number</a> (IGSN ID) is a globally unique and persistent identifier for all material samples originating from any research discipline. As well as individual samples, IGSN IDs can be applied to aggregations of samples, features-of-interest (i.e., collection sites), as well as destroyed, discarded, or otherwise ephemeral samples. The ability to distinguish material samples uniquely and continuously through IGSN ID metadata is vital for:</p><p class="has-medium-font-size">(a) interoperability among data systems,</p><p class="has-medium-font-size">(b) integration of material samples with their descriptions, and</p><p class="has-medium-font-size">(c) enabling search and discovery. </p><p class="has-medium-font-size">Following the 15-month project—<a href="https://doi.org/10.5438/50t1-tq66" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">IGSN 2040 Vision to Execution: Institutionalizing IGSN ID services</a>—funded by the <a href="https://sloan.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alfred P. Sloan Foundation</a>, IGSN IDs are now functionally DataCite DOIs and created in specific IGSN ID Catalog Repository accounts to enable identification. IGSN IDs can be easily registered by DataCite Members and Consortium Organizations using Fabrica, DataCite APIs, and systems that integrate DataCite DOI registration. Moreover, IGSN IDs can be searched for and accessed in DataCite Commons, API queries, and other discovery interfaces in the same way as DOIs, and the links between samples and other research outputs are included in the PID Graph.</p><p></p><h2 class="wp-block-heading">Partners</h2><p class="has-medium-font-size"><a href="https://www.igsn.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">IGSN e.V.</a> and DataCite</p></div><div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"><h2 class="wp-block-heading">Objectives</h2><p class="has-medium-font-size"><a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.igsn.org/" target="_blank">IGSN e.V.</a> implements and promotes standard methods for identifying, citing, and locating material samples with confidence.
