Claim One:
1. A system for the storage, organization, tracking, retrieval, and analysis of nucleic acid sample, the system comprising: (i) a biological sample device comprising one or a plurality of wells, each well having disposed therein a matrix for dry storage of the nucleic acid sample without refrigeration and without lyophilization; wherein the matrix comprises at least one stabilizer, wherein if the at least one stabilizer comprises a first stabilizer that is trehalose, then a trehalase inhibitor is also present as a second stabilizer; and wherein the matrix is free of fibers and cellulosic materials and at least 50% of the nucleic acid sample is recovered when an aqueous solvent is added to a the matrix; (ii) a computer-implemented system for receiving and transmitting data regarding the sample device; and (iii) a radio frequency interface between the sample device and the computer-implemented system for providing a communication link between the computer-implemented system and the sample device.
