RFID Based Pipette Tracking Software for Laboratory

If you are in charge of a bio lab where you need to manage calibrations of pipettes, we empathize with you. Pipettes are crucial to experiments conducted within labs. However, they also tend to move around a lot – yes, a lot! Not only is trying to make sure pipettes are in the right lab a challenge, but it is harder and more imperative to find them when they are due for calibration. Using RFID asset tracking for pipette management is a great solution to address these issues. AssetPulse has worked with world leading pharmaceutical companies to track their pipettes. We have an array of RFID tags depending on the use

RFID Based Asset Tracking aids in GLP/GMP Regulated Lab Management

February 20, 2017 Admin Lab Equipment

Being responsible for the equipment in a GLP/GMP regulated lab is no easy task. Several compliance requirements have to be adhered to. AssetPulse’s RFID asset tracking solutions have greatly helped streamline the equipment management of such labs. AssetPulse Real-time Asset Tracking Software Our real-time asset tracking solutions provide an accurate inventory of all equipment across geographic locations. It can detect addition or removal of components in qualified systems like HPLCs. The Lab Manager can be alerted of such movements, thereby triggering a re-qualification process automatically. Failure to re-qualify can have serious technical and financial repercussions. Before the use of RFID, the equipment databases were woefully out of sync with reality.
