Tracking

Your samples represent the core of your clinical research. If you’ve ever wondered where your samples are or even when you’ll see your data, then you will appreciate the value of LabConnect’s sample tracking tool – SampleGISTICS™. This tool provides real-time sample tracking and dedicated tracking personnel for your next study.

SampleGISTICS™ provides logistical transparency for each individual sample— easily available right on your dashboard. Real-time tracking follows each specimen through its entire life cycle, from collection through logistics to receipt at any laboratory or storage location in the world.

Today’s complex biomarker and specialized testing with strict timelines and sample maintenance requirements leaves little room for error. Improved sample tracking reduces the time from collection to analysis and increases the security and integrity of your specimen throughout its lifespan. Efficient, advanced virtual accessioning technology and rapid query resolution also save you time and money.
