XML Reporting in SQL*LIMS

For several years my boss, Brian, has been telling me that the perfect solution for a LIMS Certificate of Analysis report would use a solid data extraction algorithm and a flexible XML output. The idea has always sounded interesting to me, except for the fact that the SQL*LIMS product doesn’t include the technology to do such a thing…until now. Today’s article describes how to customize SQL*LIMS and Oracle Reports to send data to XML, and how to convert that XML output to PDF.

Statistical Quality Control for the Food Industry

In reviewing this book on Google recently, I found it to have a number of good concepts to incorporate into LIMS for the F&B industry. Given the current news on food contamination (on purpose, I might add), none of these concepts will help protect our food supply if food ingredients are going to consist of plastic (melamine). Statistical Quality Control can let you have a better quality process for killing pets! Excuse my attitude concerning this but something must change in the food industry.
