How to manage reagent consumables scientifically, especially reagents and solutions, is the field of laboratory application.

The scientific management of reagent consumables in the field of laboratory application mainly includes the following aspects:

Procurement management: the laboratory needs to make a procurement plan according to the actual demand, determine the types, quantities and specifications of reagents and solutions needed, and communicate and negotiate with suppliers to ensure the procurement of reagent consumables with stable quality and meeting the experimental requirements.

Warehousing management: After the reagent consumables arrive in the laboratory, they need to be inspected, labeled and classified, and the batch number, expiration date and other related information should be recorded and stored according to certain specifications to ensure the safety and manageability of the reagent consumables.

Delivery management: the laboratory needs to arrange the use of reagents and solutions reasonably according to the experimental requirements, follow the principle of first-in first-out, ensure the use of reagents within the validity period, and record the use situation for traceability and management.

Inventory management: the laboratory needs to establish an inventory management system for reagent consumables, and update the inventory information in time, including inventory quantity, storage location and expiration date, so as to replenish and allocate reagent consumables in time and avoid the interruption or delay of experiments due to insufficient inventory.

Waste management: the laboratory needs to dispose of expired, damaged or no longer used reagent consumables, and classify, package and dispose them according to environmental protection requirements to ensure the safety and environmental protection of the laboratory.

Shengyuan Guangtong LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) is a management software specially designed for laboratories. Its function of managing reagent consumables mainly includes the following aspects:

Registration and warehousing management of reagent consumables: Through LIMS system, the relevant information of reagent consumables can be registered and entered into the system, including name, batch number, specification, supplier and other information, which is convenient for subsequent inquiry and management. At the same time, the system supports the warehousing management of reagent consumables, and can record the warehousing time, quantity and storage location of reagent consumables.

Inventory management and delivery management: LIMS system can monitor the inventory of reagent consumables in real time, including inventory quantity, expiration date reminder and other functions, which is convenient for timely replenishment and deployment of reagent consumables. At the same time, the system can also record the delivery of reagent consumables, including delivery time, user department and user.

Tracing and scrapping management of reagent consumables: LIMS system can trace and query the usage of reagent consumables, which is convenient to find the usage record and flow direction of reagents. At the same time, the system also supports the scrap management of reagent consumables, including automatic reminding and handling of expired reagents to ensure the safety and compliance of reagents.

By using Shengyuan Guangtong LIMS, the laboratory can realize the scientific management of reagent consumables, improve the utilization and safety of reagents, simplify the process of reagent management and improve work efficiency.
