A primary focus of such products should be to automate what is currently done manually in the laboratory (and not just act as a simple data transfer mechanism to LIMS).
As data is transferred between instruments and LIMS, there is often a requirement for results to be modified in some manner.
At first sight this might seem strange as most LIMS and many instruments have effective calculation packages.
The reality is, however, that often these systems do not have either all the information to perform a calculation or they lack the precise calculation functionality necessary.
Suitable calculation and correction facilities are included as standard within CSols Links for LIMS (L4L) product.
It is aimed at the end user with analytical knowledge and covers many of the subtleties that have to be addressed to ensure that results are processed correctly.
The calculation functionality within L4L has been developed to address specific requirements in real world analytical laboratories over a period of 15 years, utilising more than 200 man-years of applied experience.
CSols is confident that the existing configurable calculation capabilities are unmatched by other applications.
However, we also recognise that new requirements appear from time to time and accordingly we provide a mechanism for such calculations to be incorporated in the standard product at no cost to the customer.
Calculations and corrections may be configured as part of the L4L method in a secure and compliant manner.
Actual configuration of L4L is a straightforward task for a trained user with the appropriate analytical background and requires absolutely no programming or scripting. Request a free brochure from CSols ...
