StrainControl Laboratory Manager

Laboratories, especially those which deal in chemicals or various other scientific equipment, have to store and organize a large number of items. Moreover, sometimes these items are extremely valuable and fragile, so they require increased attention to detail.

Store strains, plasmids and antibodies in a database

StrainControl Laboratory Manager is an application that enables you to keep track of a wide variety of chemicals and compounds for your laboratory, such as strains, oligos, plasmids or antibodies, which can be stored in a database for increased accessibility. These items are organized in lists and they contain additional parameters and information about their type and attributes.
Beside their name, the strains are also stored along with their genotype, markers, phenotype and location. The database environment allows you to use these details in order to sort the items based on the desired attribute, as well as easily find duplicates and print them on paper or export them as PDF files.

Add new items to the database and generate detailed reports

To extend the selection of chemicals in your database, the utility enables you to add new items to the inventory. The addition window offers you the possibility to choose the strain species and its location, as well as manually enter the name, markers, keywords and comments for every particular strain you add. In addition, you can also import them from your computer and create a copy of the entire database for backup purposes.
Furthermore, you can generate and print detailed reports regarding every item currently available in your inventory. Beside printing them on paper, you also have the option to export them on your system under a variety of text formats, including PDF, HTML or CSV, as well as PNG, JPG or TIFF images, if you are planning on only using the data for presentation purposes.

In conclusion

Thanks to the extensive amount of features and the handy database storage capabilities, StrainControl Laboratory Manager is a useful application to have around in your laboratory, especially if you need to organize a sizable chemical inventory. In addition, the easy-to-use interface allows you to effortlessly manipulate data without any kind of special training required.
