Software has been designed for use with hand-held bar code readers, giving the freedom and mobility to collect information from samples and equipment, wherever they are in the laboratory

Aitken Scientific has released new software that it says makes sample tracking from creation, through storage to end usage much more practical for pharmaceutical companies and life science laboratories, preventing loss, wastage or duplication of samples Already in use in two major pharmaceutical facilities, the software has been designed specifically for use with portable, hand-held bar code readers, giving the user the freedom and mobility to scan the relevant codes and collect information from samples, microplates, readers, refrigerator units or other pieces of equipment, wherever they are in the laboratory

The software synchronises directly with the user's PC and recorded data is automatically uploaded when the reader is returned to its cradle.

The data is then transferred into a specified database, ready for later analysis, and allows previous data sets to be downloaded and reviewed.
