Features
- Maintenance and calibration reports: Records are updated automatically with maintenance and calibration events and can be printed on demand, documenting that the system has been maintained and calibrated to vendor specifications.
- Reagent tracking: Stores and archives information about reagents used with each test, including lot number and expiration date, with each run. Archived files can be retrieved when required to track samples that were tested with a given set of reagents.
- Sample tracking: Enables laboratories to more easily track samples associated with a particular plate, set of reagents, run date and time, and data files.
- E-signature history: Security, auditing, and e-signature software records test events, actions taken, dates, user names, user roles, and activity performed, for documentation and archiving purposes.
