A case study details how one organization implemented an equipment monitoring system to provide a safety net for its research.

How a lab manager deals with the IT requirements of instruments, directly impacts instrument uptime, service costs, usability, validation, and enterprise network security.

Knowing enough about what you need sets the stage for successful implementation.

Like other new tools in the drug discovery process, automation, implemented properly, can generate the insight necessary to drive the pharmaceutical business forward.

Development of a computational approach to quantitatively unmix overlapping spectra.

It is a question that is all too familiar in todays labs. We have to automate our laboratory, but how?

Various possibilities exist to address the specific water purity requirements of each laboratory and field, some of these solutions are in relationship to the needs of various laboratories.

Done right, going paperless can make your laboratory more efficient -- saving you time and money.

Let's look at how the combination of a LIMS within the internet environment will enhance the efficiency of this powerful corporate tool for labs of all types and size.

While other common types of contamination are usually quickly identified and/or treated, mycoplasma contamination often provides no clear symptoms but can wreak havok on assay results.

Although only recently identified as a new class of molecules, microRNAs have emerged as a one of the most promising areas of research today. Recent data further suggest that medical conditions, such as cancer, can be associated with specific microRN patterns. Identifying these patterns may lead to the development of targeted treatments.

A major bottleneck in the drug development process is toxicological testing. Traditional in vivo tests performed in animals are difficult to automate; one can't put a rat into a 96-well plate! How does one manage this leg of the development process, where not "failing early" can mean millions of dollars in wasted capital?
