FreeLIMS is a Laboratory Information Management System for organising information about laboratory samples and the tests performed on them. It provides facilities for maintaining sample records, defining analytical requirements and preparing laboratory reports.
The software allows users to establish sample types using methods and parameters. This approach helps laboratories represent the different kinds of material they handle and the analytical procedures associated with them. Sample records can then be managed within the application rather than maintained in separate documents.
Reporting is another part of its functionality. FreeLIMS includes facilities for generating reports and certificates using templates that can be adapted to an organisation’s presentation requirements. Laboratories can therefore apply their own branding and document layout to information produced by the system.
User permissions help control access to laboratory information and administrative functions. The application also provides a multilingual interface for laboratories working in different languages.
This is free and open source software.
