Should You Integrate LIMS Data with a Data Warehouse or Use Data Federation? Every lab manager knows that good data is essential for advancing science — whether it’s to track trends, confirm or disprove hypotheses, or compare results across experiments. But what’s the best way to ensure decisions are based on good data in your lab environment? Modern clinical diagnostic labs generate a wealth of valuable data through the use of numerous tools and applications. All this data can end up stored in multiple locations or silos, including the laboratory information management system (LIMS). [Read More]
The Future of Used Oil Analysis Labs While there are approximately 200 used oil analysis laboratories (sometimes called “oil condition monitoring” (OCM) labs) in North America alone, with the industry expected to grow to $1.4B by 2026, some believe used oil analysis may be one of those things we never see again, like eight-track tapes and disposable cameras. With the advancement of sensor technology, electrification replacing internal combustion engines, and the trend for in-house oil analysis laboratories, the market may diminish for the traditional, large, commercial OCMs. [Read More]
Therapeutic Antibody Development: The Importance of Plate Map Design Therapeutic antibodies are now the predominant class of new drugs. Advancing safe, effective antibodies to the clinic requires narrowing a pool of thousands of candidates using high-throughput microplate-based assays. Designing plate aps for these assays using Excel or outdated digital tools is a time-consuming task prone to error, slowing the screening process and leading to critical errors in data analysis. Using LIMSense, a modern LIMS from AduroSys, can improve data quality, reduce costs, and ensure the most effective antibodies reach patients. [Read More]
