LIMS

GeNovu's Integrated LIMS is a comprehensive laboratory information management system designed for life sciences teams that need complete visibility and control over every sample from receipt to final result. Built for regulated environments including GLP, GCP, and GMP settings, it delivers 100% sample traceability, zero data entry errors, and continuous chain of custody — all tightly connected to GeNovu's Workflow Wizards and AI Intelligence platform.

Unlike standalone LIMS solutions, GeNovu's sample tracking is deeply integrated with the broader GeNovu ecosystem. When an experiment is designed in Workflow Wizards, samples are automatically queued. When results arrive from instruments, they are linked to the correct samples without manual intervention. When the AI is queried, it has access to the full sample history, enabling more accurate and contextually aware analysis.

Sample Accessioning

• Barcode and 2D code scanning for rapid sample receipt
• Automated data capture to eliminate manual entry at intake
• Smart routing rules to direct samples to the correct workflows
• Receipt confirmation to ensure every sample is formally logged

Chain of Custody

• Full movement history for every sample throughout its lifecycle
• User authentication to record who handled each sample
• Location tracking to know exactly where any sample resides at any time
• Transfer documentation to support regulatory and audit requirements

Reagent Management

• Lot tracking for all reagents used in experiments
• Expiration alerts to prevent use of out-of-date materials
• Usage monitoring to maintain accurate consumption records
• Inventory forecasting to anticipate when critical materials will run low

Result Data Sweeping

• Automated import of results directly from instruments and readers
• Instrument integration to eliminate manual transcription
• Format standardization to ensure consistency across data sources
• Validation rules to catch errors before data is accepted into the system

Storage Management

• Visual freezer and storage maps for intuitive location management
• Location search and filter capabilities to find any sample instantly
• Capacity tracking to manage available storage space
• Temperature logging to maintain sample integrity records

Workflow Integration

• Seamless connection with GeNovu Workflow Wizards for end-to-end pipeline automation
• Automatic sample queuing when experiments are initiated
• Real-time status updates as samples progress through workflows
• Result linking to associate instrument outputs with the correct sample records

Instrument Integrations

• Hamilton liquid handlers
• Tecan platforms
• Beckman Coulter systems
• Plate readers (various manufacturers)
• Barcode scanners and label printers
• Freezer monitoring systems
• MSD instruments
• Custom integrations available for instruments not listed

Compliance and Regulatory Features

• 21 CFR Part 11 tools supporting electronic records and electronic signatures
• Full audit trails with complete change history across all records
• Role-based access control with granular permissions
• Compliant electronic signatures for regulated workflows
• Data integrity built on ALCOA+ principles
• Validation-ready with IQ/OQ/PQ documentation support

GeNovu's Integrated LIMS is designed from the ground up for GLP, GCP, and GMP compliance, making it suitable for pharmaceutical, biotech, and contract research environments where data integrity and regulatory readiness are non-negotiable. Its deep integration with the rest of the GeNovu platform — including Workflow Wizards, AI Intelligence, and LabVision — ensures that sample data flows seamlessly across the entire laboratory operation.
