Requirement

  • Install Sample Management application.

To install the application:

  1. Select Applications from Settings -> Applications

  2. Click Add application and select Add from a template

  3. Choose the application name from the pop-out modal. A lack of such an option indicates that you have already installed it.

Design

Labii's aliquot management design centers around a dedicated aliquot table, meticulously crafted to store crucial details such as quantity, unit, storage specifics, and checkout records for each aliquot. Seamlessly integrated within the source table akin to sample management, this design boasts columns that dynamically showcase statistical insights for informed decision-making, including data on total aliquots, consumed aliquots, and available aliquots. Moreover, within the sections view of individual records, users gain immediate access to a comprehensive list of aliquots associated with each sample, facilitating streamlined navigation and comprehensive tracking of sample subdivision and utilization.

Usage

  1. Generating a New Sample

  2. Creating New Aliquots:

    • Generate new aliquots using the common "Add" method.

    • Alternatively, utilize the bulk add feature for adding aliquots in batches of 5 to 20 at a time.

    • For larger quantities exceeding 50 aliquots, consider employing the import function for efficiency.

  3. Checking Out Aliquots

    • Navigate to the Section view of a sample.

    • Checkout Process:

      • Click on the "Checkout" button corresponding to an aliquot for checkout.

      • Optionally, customize checkout settings to automatically archive the aliquot post-checkout.

      • To abort the checkout process, click on the "Cancel" button.

  4. Monitoring Aliquot Status

    • Access the column view of a sample.

    • Reviewing Status:

      • Review aliquot status details such as "Aliquot Total," "Aliquot Consumed," and "Aliquot Available."
