Enhancements on process like protocol development, documentation and general improvements on laboratories aim to improve control and tracking of information in order to get better results. Using an electronic notebook or LIMS within the laboratory allows further enhancement of the quality and security of information. Therefore, Laboratory systems has evolved considerably to become more flexible to the end users and guarantee the security of information at the same time. The main purpose of this lecture is to show how some of the features of the LabWare LIMS / ELN will make you laboratory more profitable, productive and cost-effective.
