Biologics LIMS: Purpose-Built for Biologics, Configurable to Your Science

Biologics R&D spans diverse protein classes and engineered cell lines- generating complex, branching data that most LIMS were never designed to handle. LabKey Biologics LIMS was built for this. It gives your team structured data models, configurable workflows, and a connected architecture designed around protein R&D, so every entity, sample, assay, and result stays linked and traceable as your programs scale.

  • Purpose-built for protein R&D — native data models for biologics workflows, not a chemical LIMS adapted to fit
  • Configurable without IT overhead — tailor workflows, data capture, and entity models to your programs without heavy implementation or developer dependency
  • Connected, traceable data across every stage — from construct design through characterization and process development, full lineage is maintained and always accessible

Capabilities That Power Biologics R&D — From Discovery to Development

Sample & Plate Management

Full Visibility Into Every Sample, Plate, and Material

Biologics programs generate sample complexity that spreadsheets can’t handle. LabKey gives you structured control over samples and plates — linked to assays, entities, and results — so every experiment is traceable and reproducible.

  • Track proteins, clones, and materials through screening, expression, purification, and characterization
  • Manage metadata across stages and storage locations
  • Trace relationships across molecules, sequences, constructs, and sample history

Assay Data & Experimental Results

Structured Assay Data Across Every Protein Class and Workflow

Generic tools leave assay data scattered across files and systems. LabKey captures results in a standardized, queryable framework — connected to the samples and entities that generated them.

  • Record and analyze results across assay types for any protein class
  • Apply consistent data structures to support querying and automation
  • Visualize performance trends and surface top candidates without manual cleanup

Bioregistry

One Registry for Every Biological Entity in Your Programs

As programs scale, entity management becomes a bottleneck — especially when constructs, variants, and cell lines are tracked across different tools and teams. LabKey’s Bioregistry centralizes registration and relationship management for every entity your science depends on.

  • Register and manage antibodies, antigens, peptides, vectors, cell lines, and more
  • Define relationships between entities and preserve lineage and scientific context
  • Trace every entity back to its origin, linked samples, and associated assay data

Electronic Lab Notebook

Experiment Documentation That Stays Connected to Your Data

An ELN that exists in isolation from your sample and assay data creates exactly the problem you’re trying to solve. LabKey’s integrated ELN links directly to biological entities, samples, and results — so experimental context is never lost.

  • Link notebook entries to related samples, assays, bioregistry entities, and workflows
  • Reduce documentation burden with structured templates and guided entry options
  • Support review, sign-off, and collaboration workflows for regulatory alignment

Biologics LIMS Frequently Asked Questions

A Biologics LIMS is a laboratory information management system designed specifically for protein-based R&D — antibody discovery, cell line development, construct design, and characterization workflows. General-purpose LIMS platforms and chemical LIMS adapted for biologics weren't built to handle the complex, branching relationships between molecules, variants, constructs, cell lines, samples, and assay results. A purpose-built system provides native data models for all of it.

Most LIMS platforms were built around chemical or clinical workflows and adapted for biologics after the fact. LabKey Biologics LIMS was designed from the ground up for protein R&D — with native data models for antibodies, antigens, vectors, cell lines, and peptides, and a connected architecture that maintains lineage from construct design through characterization. Your team configures it to your science rather than working around a system that wasn't built for it.

A Bioregistry is a centralized system for registering and managing every biological entity your programs depend on — antibodies, antigens, peptides, vectors, cell lines, and more — along with the relationships between them. As programs scale, tracking constructs and variants across disconnected tools creates errors and delays. LabKey's integrated Bioregistry keeps every entity linked to its origin, related samples, and associated assay data, so nothing gets lost as programs grow.

Yes. LabKey Biologics LIMS gives internal R&D teams and external partners like CROs shared access to clean, consistent data through role-based access controls. External collaborators can contribute data without compromising governance, and every action is logged and traceable. And, data quality holds whether work is happening in-house or externally.

Yes. LabKey Biologics LIMS includes a full audit trail and is 21 CFR Part 11 compliant, with role-based access controls, timestamped records of every user action, and data validation rules built into the platform. These capabilities support regulatory alignment without requiring separate compliance tooling.

LabKey captures assay results in a standardized, queryable framework that works across assay types and protein classes — connected directly to the samples and entities that generated them. Your team can query across experiments, visualize performance trends, and surface top candidates without manually reconciling data from separate files or systems.

Yes. LabKey Biologics LIMS supports integrations with analytics platforms including Spotfire, Tableau and R/R Studio, as well as database connections to Amazon S3, PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, SAS, Oracle, MySQL, and Amazon Redshift. Structured, audit-ready datasets mean your data is ready for analytics, AI/ML workflows, and regulatory review without additional cleanup.
