Abbott Web-Based Lab Information Management System

Abbott announced the launch of a web-based laboratory information management system to enable labs to make data management simpler, better integrated, and more user-friendly. StarLIMS Life Sciences Solution CL 11.0 includes pre-clinical research, clinical research, and biorepository, molecular, and academic research, Abbott said.

The firm said that continual improvements in laboratory information management system platforms are crucial as regulatory scrutiny increases, the amount of data grows exponentially, some industries move toward molecular testing and precision medicine, and pressure mounts to bring new products to market faster.

The products' advanced analytics allows clients to analyze lab data via enhanced data visualization capabilities, which enables better, faster, and business-critical decision making, Abbott said.
