LIMS 24/7, from Ruro, offers users comprehensive mining into data and metadata. LIMS 24/7 Version 4 introduces a host of improvements designed to get users to information and understanding faster. This release also features additional communication methods to support the growing emphasis on collaboration that many organisations are experiencing and an improved reporting tool that erases the need for external reporting software. Featured enhancements for


LIMS 24/7 Version 4 include: improved user interface with multiple tools to visualise important data upon user sign on or in the user’s tool bar; file repository home screen section populated with a quick- reference roster of databases,





research to manufacturing. The software is highly scalable. It is cost effective for smaller laboratories, and proven in organisations that wish to deploy to multiple laboratories on an enterprise scale. The software can be deployed


via a zero footprint, web interface, Windows and hand-held devices. LabWare LIMS provides


extensive ‘out-of-the-box’ functionality and a library of pre-configured templates is available to fast-track installations in the pharmaceutical, contract analysis, forensic, petrochemical, biorepository and other industries. LabWare ELN provides a


convenient, familiar spreadsheet style environment and much of the set-up work can be accomplished by end users. The latest release provides the capability to mix spreadsheet and document style templates. The system can operate in


experiment driven, research environments and also provides a method execution mode suitable for QA/QC. The software provides instrument integration, flexible management of images and raw data files and all operations are comprehensively audited. LabWare ELN can seamlessly integrate with LabWare LIMS,


forms or other document links and downloads; improved data query interface allowing users to view mined data by priority, frequency, type or any other category; and additional access permission rights, user defined field types, chart types, report configuration tools, alert methods, supported barcode printers and more. Ruro develops software


and RFID solutions for research, biotechnological, pharmaceutical, healthcare and government laboratories. www.ruro.com


delivering an exceptionally cost effective and advanced level of laboratory automation capability with access to one of the most extensive range of application modules in the industry. Combining LabWare LIMS and ELN achieves a goal that can prove a challenge for laboratories attempting to integrate products from different suppliers. www.labware.com


Exemplar Laboratory Information System for Tablets, from Sapio


Studylog Systems has recently released the Studylog Animal Study Workflow Solutions Suite, a highly-configured, easily user-customisable Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) to plan, oversee, conduct, analyse, report, store and query animal studies and their results. Recognising the unmet


need due to severe limitations of Excel and Macro-based ELNs to facilitate and manage actual workflow planning and oversight of animal studies, Studylog Systems has provided an excellent adjunct to ELNs by releasing its most flexible,

Sciences, is suitable for use with the new generation of tablets such as the Google Nexus 10, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and iPad 2/3/4, and allows lab technicians to work untethered from a desktop or laptop computer and to take Exemplar with them where they are working. Exemplar’s Lab Management Software for Tablets features a workflow-driven, responsive touch interface with intuitive mechanisms for common LIMS software needs like multi- selection, file loading, resizing and scrolling. Exemplar also addresses the limited screen real estate by converting into full screen, app mode when its workflows are running. Wireless barcode scanners can also be joined with the tablet allowing for barcode scanning directly into Exemplar. In the modern lab environment


lab technicians utilise multiple instruments that are dispersed throughout the lab and may even be in separate rooms. As they perform this work, lab technicians are typically required to enter detailed information about sample processing into LIMS. In the past, lab technicians would often print worksheets and take those around the lab recording written information. Then they would return to their PC and reenter the information into the LIMS. Exemplar now enables lab


technicians to be more efficient since it can be taken to each instrument and information can be


recorded directly. Exemplar’s configurable


workflows are the primary tablet interface. Exemplar workflows step the lab technician through a defined process collecting information and providing assistance as needed. The intuitive and straightforward interface of Exemplar’s workflows reduces training needs and improves data quality and lab throughput. www.sapiosciences.com
