Laboratory Automation FAQ
Common questions and answers about lab workflow management
Lab automation in LIMS software refers to the integration of automated processes within a laboratory setting to reduce manual effort and improve accuracy, efficiency, and reproducibility. This can include automated data entry, instrument integration, workflow automation, and sample tracking.
LIMS software can automate a wide range of laboratory processes, including:
-Sample tracking and management
-Data collection from instruments
-Workflow management (e.g., scheduling tasks or tests)
-Inventory management (e.g., stock level monitoring)
-Report generation
-Data analysis and results interpretation
-Quality control and compliance tracking
LIMS software automates workflows by setting predefined rules and procedures for different lab processes. It can automatically assign tasks to lab personnel, prioritize jobs based on urgency, schedule tests or analyses, and ensure that each step in the workflow is completed before proceeding to the next.
Yes, LIMS can automate communication by sending notifications and alerts to lab personnel when tasks are assigned, results are ready, or when attention is needed for certain workflows. It can also provide real-time updates on the status of experiments or tests.
LIMS platforms offer highly customizable automation features. Labs can tailor automation workflows, instrument integrations, data reporting, and notifications to suit their specific operational needs, helping them optimize their processes without disrupting current workflows.
