In the fast-paced world of routine lab testing, increasing pressure is placed on chemists and technicians to analyze more samples in shorter timeframes, and often with fewer personnel. Analytical processes and methods therefore need to be streamlined to improve efficiency.
Easy, secure and reliable transfer of the data required for method execution and documentation is becoming more important, and in addition helps prevent human errors. Digitalization and connectivity are the key phrases often used to describe the demand for fast and seamless access to the required data, and the transfer of data should be simple and smart.
At MilliporeSigma, we are addressing these challenges in multiple ways.
We implemented a 2D matrix barcode for our chemicals and reagents, allowing users to scan a barcode to retrieve product data from the Certificate of Analysis along with up-todate product safety information from the SDS, using a smart phone app or a barcode reader, for example.
