菌（毒）种保藏细菌分中心承担相应菌（毒）种、样本的保藏工作任务，按照规定接收、鉴定、集中储存和管理菌（毒）种或样本，向合法从事病原微生物实验活动的单位提供菌（毒）种或样本，出具国家标准菌（毒）株（鉴定）证明，并在菌（毒）种保存技术研究、业务培训等方面发挥国家级保藏中心的职责。开展病原菌新种的发现，未知和罕见病原体的鉴定研究。

　　依据CHPC的管理办法，传染病所菌种保藏中心整合现有病原微生物菌（毒）株的资源，集中规范保藏和管理各类病原微生物菌（毒）株，包括细菌、病毒、真菌、立克次体、支原体、衣原体、螺旋体和放线菌等。同时，托管保存相关的生物标本资源。为病原微生物菌（毒）种及相关资源的保护、共享和持续利用发挥作用。

　　The Center of Infectious Disease Control and Prevention (ICDC Center), is bacterial sub center of the Center for Human Pathogen Collection of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CHPC, China CDC，www.nprc.org.cn/chpc). CHPC is the first national preservation center for human pathogenic microorganism designated by National Health Commission of China. ICDC Center is also the bacterial Center of the national science and technology resource sharing service platform - National Pathogen Resource Center (NPRC, www.nprc.org.cn).

　　ICDC Center undertakes the task of preserving the corresponding bacteria (viruses) species and samples. Receive, identify, and centrally store and manage the species or samples of bacteria (viruses) according to the regulations, and provide the bacteria (viruses) or samples to units legally engaged in the experimental activities of pathogenic microbes, and offer confirmation of the national standard bacteria (viruses). To play the role of national level Preservation Center in the field of preservative technology research and professional work training. ICDC Center also detection novel species and identification of unknown and rare pathogens.

　　According to the management rules of CHPC, ICDC center integrates the resources of the existing pathogenic microorganism, and centrally standardize the preservation and management of all kinds of pathogenic microorganism, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, Rickettsia, mycoplasma, chlamydia, spirulae and actinomycetes. At the same time, the resources of biological specimens are also managed and preserved. It will play a role in the protection, sharing and sustainable utilization of pathogenic microorganisms (virus) and related resources.
