Autoscribe Informatics Matrix Gemini Veterinary LIMS

Autoscribe Informatics’ laboratory information management system (LIMS), Matrix Gemini, is used by veterinary laboratories across the world for managing the full testing life cycle, from sample reception to final reporting. The Matrix Gemini Veterinary LIMS has now been updated to support the specific needs of veterinary pathology labs.

Multiple species-specific limits can be assigned to each test, reducing the burden of supporting multiple species and breeds. Instead of creating multiple versions of the same test, with different limits for each species, the software allows multiple limits, one for each species, to be applied to the same test.

Other features include: predefined templates for culture and sensitivity testing to help identify effective antimicrobials, a key aspect of ensuring effective treatment; the ability to pool samples for testing and maintain traceability, enabling a whole herd or flock to be tested at once; and optional support for manual differential testing, allowing technicians to view a slide or plate through their microscope while simultaneously recording counts on a keyboard.

Matrix Gemini is known for its configurability. Every custom LIMS is based on the same software, with configurable workflows and screen designs to suit any industry. The graphical configuration tools allow controlled changes to be made to the system without the need for software coding. This means the system can be modified over time to meet changing business requirements, without compromising system support or upgradeability of the core code.
