The Track-IT sample management system, developed for Micronic, is interfaced to a 2D code reader that allows users to organise and track individual samples.
Keeping track of large numbers and types of samples and specimens (chemical compounds, DNA, RNA, plasmids, clones, proteins, peptides, probes, antibodies, enzymes, tissues and cell lines) - where they are and their precise location - is a demanding task for many laboratories and sample storage facilities.
Track-IT is a complete software package designed to track and manage samples.
It is suitable for biobanks and biorepositories as well as molecular biology, cellular biology, clinical, chemical, biochemistry, immunology, high-throughput screening and IVF laboratories.
Fully compatible with most commercial barcode readers and scanners, Track-IT allows the user to catalogue and organise samples.
The central information database produced by Track-IT is customisable to match the workflow of different laboratories, as well as to match the unique aspects of different sample types.
Track-IT has been designed to help a laboratory manage sample data and information and make it available to other colleagues in the organisation.
Offering operation over an intranet, Track-IT allows data to be accessed from any connected computer in the network, thereby accelerating information retrieval.
As a result, laboratory staff can spend less time on repetitive and time-consuming operations and dedicate more time to productive research activities.
Track-IT allows users to import data from existing files into a common presentation, undertake cross-database searches, retrieve information and produce reports.
Compliant with CFR 21 Part 11 protocols, Track-IT offers full sample audit traceability.
A single Track-IT licence covers all users within an organisation.
An online tutorial that demonstrates how Track-IT can help users to efficiently organise and track individual samples can be viewed on Micronic's website.
