LabCollector LIMS for BioBanking

BioBanking and other biological resource collections are growing faster. These structures must employ a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) to manage high information volume and meet the high standards of quality required by scientists and therefore accreditation bodies.

Biobanking principles

Inventory management

Manage donors, samples, aliquots, and derived materials in a single database. Track quantities, storage locations, expiration dates, and availability while keeping a complete history of each sample throughout its lifecycle.

Temperature monitoring

Monitor storage conditions for freezers, fridges, and storage rooms. Record temperature logs, track deviations, and keep documentation ready for audits, quality programs, and accreditation requirements.

Barcoding & labeling

Identify samples, containers, and storage locations using barcode labels. Support fast scanning during intake, aliquoting, retrieval, and audits while reducing manual errors and improving operational efficiency.

Fully customizable interface

Adapt LabCollector to your biobank structure with fully customizable modules, metadata, and custom fields. Define donor data, sample attributes, storage parameters, and experimental metadata to match your workflows and regulatory requirements.

Configure forms and search filters to reflect your processes, standardize data entry across teams, and support evolving protocols without changing your underlying database structure.

Biobanking

Data traceability:

  • Unique ID for each data entry (samples, reagents, equipments …)
  • Locate your samples in the lab with the storage browser
  • Integrate samples results (assays, tests)
  • Follow up sample process
  • Check database entries and modifications using a log of user activity

Biobanking

Tools to organize your BioBank activities:

  • Customize the database modules, fields and search filters
  • Edit barcode labels to identify quickly information
  • Mass import, update and export of data
  • Manage lab inventory
  • Manage product orders and lot receptions
  • Edit online catalogue of available biological resources (optional)
  • Edit BioBank process workflows

LabCollector LIMS gives your BioBank powerful tools to set up an efficient Quality Management System (QMS) for your activities in a single database:

Biobanking

Data security:

  • Access to LabCollector is limited to identified users (login and encrypted password)
  • Manage data access using user permission levels (admin, staff, user, visitor)
  • User groups and record ownership provide additional security
  • Speed up your research and optimize your organization
  • Facilitate storage management, inventory and data retrieval
  • Enhance data traceability and improve the quality management system of your R&D activities

Sharing & collaboration

Lab Cross Search

Easily search for modules’ records across different LabCollector instances from anywhere.
The collaborative catalog within Lab CrossSearch allows finding and sharing data from modules across users of other LabCollector local instances. Search for available reagents, antibodies, primers, plasmids, and so on in other labs or groups.

Data traceability

You can manage high information volume and meet the high standards of quality required by accreditation bodies.

Testimonial

“Extremely responsive and helpful”

We spent years looking for a decent sample management software. Some of the key requirements that LabCollector meet include:

  • It is a web-based solution
  • The software can be implemented in house instead of being hosted by a third party

LabCollector even goes beyond this set of requirements. It is progressively becoming a central hub for all our laboratory information.The use of a standard database (MySQL) makes it possible to access the data without going through the user interface when needed. Customer support is top notch. They are extremely responsive and helpful. We really feel that we get personal attention.

To conclude, it is a very positive experience. This product has managed to fill a niche between desktop biobanking solutions and enterprise-class LIMS systems. It is a great LIMS that meets the needs of many academic research groups, institutes, and biotech companies.
