Description: Generated key value for the location table for MorphBank Entities. The id of each object in MorphBank shall carry the same characteristics based upon the Life Sciences Identifier. However, instead of 5 parts of the ID, MorpBank will only implement 2: the namespace and serial number. The length will be 18 characters long and the two parts divided by a colon. The serial number will be generated by a specific MorphBank applet and will also catalog the object so searches on MorphBank object ids will return the specific table location of each object.
