Lab informatics harnesses cutting-edge technologies to manage, analyze, and interpret the vast amounts of data generated in lab settings. It encompasses the use of advanced software systems, including laboratory information management systems (LIMS), electronic laboratory notebooks (ELN), and scientific data management systems (SDMS), to streamline workflows and facilitate collaboration. Increasingly, lab informatics integrates machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to automate data analysis, predict trends, and optimize experimental processes. Explore how lab informatics empowers researchers and scientists to derive actionable insights, accelerate discoveries, and drive advancements across diverse scientific fields.
Innova Biosciences, based on the Babraham Research Campus, Cambridge UK, has launched a family of assay reagents called PiColorLock™, to facilitate the measurement of the activity of phosphatases, ATPases and other Pi-generating enzymes in microplates. Unlike the traditional "Malachite Green" method, which is prone to precipitation problems, PiColorLock reagent is specially formulated to give a stable end-point signal, meani…
