Discover an informative webinar focusing on the effective strategies for labelling labware and samples to enhance laboratory efficiency and accuracy.
The expert speakers will focus on challenges laboratories face, such as bottlenecks, duplicate sequences, chain of custody issues and sample loss, when samples are not uniquely identified. They will address the critical challenges faced by laboratories in efficiently accessioning labware and samples using effective labeling strategies. These issues significantly hinder lab efficiency and accuracy.
The expert speakers will also discuss reliable labeling and marking methods that can uniquely identify samples, ensuring smooth and error-free laboratory accessioning. A common misperception is that unique or custom barcode sequences can only be printed on-site at the lab. They will explain how custom sequences and identification can be easily outsourced and the benefits of this approach.
They will examine the four basic labeling strategies, as well as the benefits and limitations of each:
- Manual print-on-demand (lab prints on-site)
- Pre-printed labels with custom sequences (label provider pre-prints the labels)
- Automated print-and-apply (equipment prints and applies the labels on-site)
- Pre-barcoded labware with custom sequences (labware arrives labeled)
They will review key considerations labs should take when choosing a labeling strategy, including the need for cold storage or extreme temperatures, chemical exposure, automation and other factors. They will then offer a recap of key learnings and tips for choosing the labeling strategy and take questions from the audience.
Moreover, they will provide an overview of ordering custom barcoded labware and discuss how this process works, the advantages of outsourcing this task and where to start.
Register for this webinar today to discover how to optimize a laboratory’s efficiency and accuracy using advanced labware labeling strategies.
