LIMS editions tailored for specific
industries. |
| |
Each AssayNet LIMS is built around a set
of common core components, to which we add specific features
tailored to provide an optimal solution for your industry. This
approach gives you the best of both worlds; combining the support
benefits of out-of-the-box programs with the advantages of customized
solutions.
Customizable menus are easily configured within the interface,
allowing you to integrate third-party applications into the
LIMS. |

|
Minerals and Mining Industry. |
| |
From simple process stream analysis to
complex, multi-instrument determinations of hundreds of analytes,
AssayNet LIMS provide fast, efficient data management systems
at a very competitive price point.
LIMS2003 and LIMS.NET provide the ideal solution for:
- Commercial minerals laboratories
- Minesite laboratories
- Process plant facilities in the materials industry
- Federal and provincial laboratories supporting
the geological and mining sectors

Features |
 |
|
| |
| Fast sample login. |
|
From single samples to multi-thousand
sample batches, login that is both fast and efficient
will save your staff time and save you money. A sample
wizard allows you to rapidly enter series with repeating
numeric sequences, while a co-ordinate entry system quickly
builds up x-y-z co-ordinate labels. The system can import
sample labels from other sources, such as text and spreadsheets,
and it supports pre-defined sample lists and analyses,
linked to an automatic scheduler for routine sample login.
Using the web interface, your customers can register samples
remotely through a browser interface, and even print their
own barcode labels, saving you labor and reducing the
potential for sample labeling errors. |

| Sample preparation
included |
|
Virtually unique in minerals analysis
is the attention that must be given to sample preparation
protocols. Minesite and minerals lab managers understand
well that they ignore sample prep at their peril. LIMS2003
allows managers and those responsible for quality to estimate
the variance introduced at each stage of the analysis,
including sample preparation. This lets them make informed
decisions about preparation methodologies, including such
things as optimal sample size, number of size reduction
stages, and number and type of splitting stages. Information
about preparation variance is normally gathered using
split samples, taken at various stages along the preparation
route.
Many labs also introduce additional QC samples during
preparation, as distinct from those introduced at the
analysis stage. An example is the use of barren quartz
washings to identify equipment contamination. AssayNet
LIMS systems can track these independently and they form
part of the overall QC program.
Finally, by analyzing sample products separately, LIMS2003
is able to perform intra-sample calculations such as for
screen analysis with assay of fractions, metallics screen
assays, and bullion analysis |

|
|
| |
| Powerful tracking
tools |
|
User-defined status codes allow the
LIMS to track samples in the way you want, not the way
a programmer decided you should. Find your work rapidly,
or get instant feedback about work-in-progress with complex
saved filters.
Our revolutionary Job Book concept stores all analytical
data in a readily-accessible and customizable register
– so you can view everything in one place, anytime
you want. |

|
|
| |
| Automatic worksheet
generation |
|
Quality control integration and automatic
worksheet generation are just some of the sophisticated
tools that allow analysts to spend less time at the keyboard
and more time on the bench. QC templates allow you to
insert randomized and fixed-position QC samples according
to pre-defined rules. Worksheet samples can come from
different worklists and different clients, and can even
have different sample types. |
|
|
|
| |
| Flexible results
entry |
|
AssayNet LIMS accept many different
types of results entry, including numeric and textual
values, as well as choosing from pre-defined lists, (e.g.
mineralogical characterization). In addition, analysts
can add comments to individual samples or results. These
comments can be free-form or chosen from drop-down lists.
They are indexed and can be configured to display on subsequent
results screens as well as on customer reports. |
|
|
|
| |
| Calculations
made simple |
|
Using our intuitive, calculator-style
equation editor, users can rapidly define complex, intra-
and inter-test formulae, incorporating powerful, conditional
logic rules. Examples range from simple analyte totals
such as whole rock total mineral, to more complex weighted
calulations such as screen-fire assays.
For raw data processing, LIMS2003 offers several different
correction options, all fully user-configurable, including
position-based drift and blank correction, and matrix
interference corrections for specific analytes. |
|
|
|
| |
| Compliance and
Verification |
|
Adverse results can be flagged automatically,
with custom alerts providing colored, on-screen and /
or email warnings for out-of-compliance samples. Complex,
cross-task verification rules promote peace of mind by
checking results algorithmically before they are approved.
Finally, results approval screens allow users unparalleled
flexibility, giving multiple, user-customizable views
of the same data, instant QC feedback and much more. |

LIMS
2003 |
| |
AssayNet's flagship product is a client/server
LIM system built specifically for environmental and minerals
laboratories, and powered by the Microsoft SQL Server database
engine. Robust and highly scaleable, the program was written
to conform to the ASTM level II specification for LIMS. |
|
QC+ |
| |
QC+ is a robust and flexible data analysis and
charting tool, designed to give Chemists immediate feedback
about the validity of Quality data from an analytical run. The
program also allows managers and others responsible for Quality
to investigate longer-term trends, and assists in the provision
an preparation of Quality reports. |
|
LIMS.net |
| |
LIMS.net is our next-generation LIMS for mineral
and environmental laboratories. It is a highly scalable, multi-tier application
written in C# to target the .NET runtime.
LIMS.net is still under development and is scheduled for release
in the second quarter of 2005. |
