New version incorporates many new features including native support for both Windows and Macintosh computers and the new Smart-XForms template creation and searching functionality
Labtrack, developer of the Labtrack electronic lab notebook (ELN) product, has introduced its newest product version - Labtrack Pro.
This exciting new version incorporates many new features including native support for both Windows and Macintosh computers and the new Smart-XForms template creation and searching functionality.
Now supports both Mac and Windows.
Labtrack Pro is a thin client application that can be used with both PCs and Macs running browsers such as Internet Explorer, FireFox and Safari.
According to Richard Stember, CEO of Labtrack: "Labtrack's new cross platform compatibility opens the door for companies with a varied user base to standardise on a single electronic laboratory notebook".
Introducing Labtrack Pro Smart-XForms.
Labtrack Pro's new Smart-XForms allows users to easily create and apply fully searchable templates on Labtrack's lab notebook pages.
Created with the built-in word processor, Smart-XForms can contain text, spreadsheets, form elements, rules and calculations.
These user defined forms are automatically indexed and the form's captions and values made available for users to search across notebooks.
"In fact", according to Stember, "users can create fully customised and comprehensive applications using Smart-XForms all within the context of their electronic lab notebook.
"This new application of XHTML technology promises to merge together the functions of ELNs with many laboratory applications including Lims, inventory, ERP, and experiment management.
"And by employing the XHTML open standard, Labtrack Pro ensures compatibility with many other applications and provides an electronic lab notebook that can be read decades into the future", says Stember.
Collaboration and scalability.
Labtrack Pro provides a unifying collaborative environment that addresses the document authoring and sharing needs of virtually all scientists and engineers with an easy to use browser based word processor.
Because it is fully scalable up to enterprise level implementations, Labtrack can be deployed by both the smallest and the largest of organisations.
Licenses are offered starting at five users and going up to 5000 users.
Regulatory and legal compliance.
Labtrack Pro has built-in functionality for cGMP, GLP and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
The integrity of the notebook data is addressed with automatic data validation routines that ensure that notebook pages can be used as electronic evidence in a US court of law and with the US Patent and Trademark Office.
