Increased automation brings productivity

Thermo Electron has announced the availability of a new application for its ToxLab 2.0 Intelligent Sequencing Software.

Thermo Electron has announced the availability of a new application for its ToxLab 2.0 Intelligent Sequencing Software.

The application demonstrates the benefits of using the software for analysis of urine samples in drug testing and toxicology laboratories.

The solutions maximize productivity and profitability for today's high throughput laboratories where accelerated turn-around time and minimum cost per sample are vital for achieving critical productivity goals.

Significant annual savings can result from the use of ToxLab 2.0 for sample acquisition and analysis.

The application was highlighted at the 35th Society of Forensic Toxicologists (Soft) Annual Meeting in Nashville, Tennessee.

This application is the latest addition to Thermo's extensive range of application notes designed to demonstrate the ability of its GC/MS solutions to effectively and efficiently analyze toxicological samples.

By combining the applications with its GC/MS capabilities plus real-time decision making software, Thermo is now able to offer its customers a complete solution for toxicological analyses.

ToxLab 2.0 makes real-time decisions based on the programmed method and is able to automatically troubleshoot and resolve common issues that arise, such as the need to re-inject a blank.

The savings in time and money result from the elimination of wasted time, resources, and labor, and savings increase proportionately as the number of analyzed samples increases.

An additional application presented by Thermo features the real-world analysis of oral fluid samples in a high-throughput drug testing laboratory.

The application is favorable to drug testing laboratories due to the use of oral fluid, as opposed to urine, as the sample matrix which provides more protection of subject privacy and is easily attainable.
