LIMS for the Bass Ackwards Laboratory
It is clear that if you have a lab that produces data, you need a system to manage and release that data in a format known as "Information". Customers of the lab do not need raw instrument data, they need quality assured information that consists of raw instrument data. They need information that directly correlates to why they sent samples to the lab for testing in the first place. The fact that an analytical instrument had to be used to produce the required data is of no concern to those lab customers. They just want the information.Download iPad ELN (electronic laboratory notebook) for free & presentation on Legal Issues for ELN’s

- Are you an experimental researcher who needs to organize work notes so that they are easier to search and share with colleagues? Then the iPad Electronic Lab Notebook is a good solution for you, since it allows you to organize notes in a way that is both thorough and flexible. The key concept in iPad is labeling or tagging: you can tag any part of your notes using common tags such as project, experiment, data, or tip. Tags make the notes easier to understand and manage.
LIMS and Stem Cell Research
LIMS is an acronym for Laboratory Information Management Software, is a common software used in environmental, pharmaceutical and research institutions. It’s a software to manage laboratory life, indeed with this tool it’s possible not only to manage samples and standards, users and instruments, but also to send invoices, control the automation of the workflow, manage projects.Implementing B2MML In LIMS
By Jeff Vannest, Senior Consultant
In the process of implementing an ERP to LIMS interface, one of the challenges to overcome was how to clearly communication between Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) and SQL*LIMS v5. In the past, I had been exposed to several methods of interface communication, text files containing single bits of data, records inserted directly into a database, and concatenated strings transmitted over a network. Each of these methods had at least one serious flaw: if the data structure changed the interface stopped working. This article will review how Business To Manufacturing Markup Language (B2MML) was used to robustly transfer data and instructions between an ERP and LIMS system.

By Jeff Vannest, Senior Consultant
Most of this year has been spent designing and writing an interface between SQL*LIMS v5.1 and the new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system being implemented by a global pharmaceutical manufacturing company. The goal was threefold: notify LIMS system administrators of changes made to materials, vendors, and manufactures; automatically create and update lots in the LIMS system; and send lot statuses and results from LIMS back to the ERP when testing was complete. This article will review the decision-making process used to plan and develop the interface.

There are many types and sizes of laboratories, as we all well know. Let’s face it though, not many labs are very large, in fact, most have fewer than 25 people. So given this fact, does it really matter what the answer is to the question: “Mirror, Mirror on the wall, what is the largest LIMS of them all?” Well…. you decide.The LIMS home grown nightmare…
In today’s world, the idea of building your own LIMS is becoming a thing of the past. There are many good products to choose from; but in case you are thinking of having a LIMS built for your lab, consider this image… A home grown LIMS can sometimes be a pretty good representation of a very large bug.Laboratory Informatics Weekly Update – Volume 7, Issue 37
