Laboratory Informatics with Robotics

The Solution

Every laboratory is unique in its operations. Planet Pharma hired talent to help a Top 10 Global Biopharmaceutical Organization implement crucial processes.

Here is an example process:

• [INFORMATICS] Plan Sample Extraction in LIMS and ELN
• [ROBOTICS] Locate, Sort and Verify Samples with an Automated Freezer
• [ROBOTICS] Thaw, Mix, and Centrifuge Samples
• [ROBOTICS] Remove the Sample Caps with the Decapper
• [ROBOTICS] Extract Samples with an Automated Liquid Handler
• [INFORMATICS] Run Samples on the Analysis Instruments
• [INFORMATICS] Collect Data on the Instrument Software
• [INFORMATICS] Execute Regressions to Analyze the Data in LIMS

The Results

• Saved FTE hours, allowing scientists to spend time where it’s needed
• Reduced human error by utilizing robotics
• Designed operations strategy and updated SOPs
• Established metrics to measure operational efficiency and productivity
