Adoption of an laboratory execution system can facilitate data flow from laboratory to business systems and document bench-level workflows; reducing overall waste and variability in scientific data management.

Quantitation of nucleic acids is commonly performed using UV absorbance. Molecular Devices’ µMax Low Volume Microplate allows users to read up to 64 samples per plate on Spectra- Max® Microplate Readers, with sample volumes as low as 2 μL.

Developments to Support Alphalisa Detection in Array Tape™ ELISA is widely used for screening and quantification of substances in biological samples.

A cost-benefit case study explains the benefits of implementing material tracking software using bar code technology.

As a component of a lab’s information infrastructure, ELNs help laboratories capture and manage knowledge, streamline data management, protect intellectual property (IP), and, as a central repository, foster collaboration between and among groups and locations.

Contributing editor Tanuja Koppal, Ph.D., talks to two scientists—one from a large pharmaceutical company and the other from a large academic institution—about their experiences with transitioning from paper to electronic lab notebooks (ELNS).

This webinar features three case studies highlighting the role of the ELN in research, development and QA/QC labs.

A perfectly engineered microplate reader is only part of the solution. Knowing how to effectively perform all of the leading applications on that instrument is the final piece of the puzzle.....

Electronic Laboratory Notebooks (ELNs) are software programs that replace paper notebooks in the lab, but they are also more than that, helping to close the electronic gaps among and between data systems. Recently, ELNs have been part of the

Microplate readers are used to discern either physical, chemical, or biological events in microtiter plates and are common in academia and the biotech, pharmaceutical, and drug discovery industries, as well as in research.

It has been known for several years that chemicals (e.g., BPA and phlalates) can leach out of the plastic, such as toys and baby bottles. The impact of these chemicals on human health is well known.

A laboratory information management system (LIMS) consists of software with the ability to perform a wide variety of tasks.
