Lablogic has developed a module in its Adme Lims Debra that removes the requirement to use Excel.
Scientists seeking to profile the metabolism of radio-labelled compounds need to summarise their chromatography data.
Previously, the usual method for doing this was to extract the information from the radiochromatography software and then paste it into Excel, where it could be combined with per cent information from the Lims to calculate the concentration or recovery of major metabolites.
The new Lims module from Lablogic does all the calculations required to prepare pooled samples and tracks the theoretical and actual activity within each one.
When this module is linked to Laura 4, Lablogic said that customers can save up to five days per project because they no longer have to spend time producing tables manually and having each cell quality controlled for accuracy.
Debra's HPLC report can be used for both in vivo and in vitro data.
It can group metabolites either by name or by retention time (with a predefined tolerance for retention shift), and can be programmed to select only significant metabolites over a certain percentage of the total activity.
