Developments to first commercially-available laboratory information management system designed specifically to manage the large volumes of data generated in proteomics
GenoLogics, developer of proteomics laboratory information management system Proteuslims, announces the release of an extensive product suite including Proteuslims Global Server, Proteuslims Enterprise, and Proteuslims Workstation.
"The industry response since we released Proteuslims has been overwhelming.
"The challenges faced by our customers are very broad.
"This led us to develop additional product offerings that meet the needs of proteomic facilities, whether they are large or small, in a single facility or distributed across the globe" states Michael Ball, GenoLogics's CEO.
Proteuslims Global Server supports facilities that operate several separate laboratories and require integrated data management and extensive scientific instrument integration. Proteuslims Enterprise is a fully scalable, configurable solution for high-throughput facilities.
Proteuslims Workstation is designed for small laboratories that require workflow and sample tracking, and is built to operate out-of-the-box.
New Proteuslims version 1.5 features.
To supplement this novel product suite offering, each Proteuslims edition has the following new functionality: users can easily configure scientific instruments, workflows and data; advanced gel support, including multi-dimensional gels; intuitive gel spot identification, annotation and view of downstream data; flexible sample tracking and workflows; increased traceability of workflows and processes. GenoLogics clients include the Genome BC Proteomic Centre, Oregon Health Sciences University and the University of British Columbia.
Proteuslims is designed to manage the large volumes of data generated in the emerging field of proteomics, where scientists undertake complex studies of proteins to develop disease diagnostics and find new targets for drug development. Proteuslims is said to be the first commercially available Lims that specialises in meeting the needs of proteomics researchers.
