Web-based software company CloudLIMS has developed a laboratory information management system (LIMS) that is dedicated to COVID-19 diagnostic testing.
Setup of the preconfigured system takes up to four days, according to the company. It comes preloaded with tests approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), report templates, and workflows that aim to maximize testing and reporting capabilities at COVID-19 labs.
A client portal enables physicians to place SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic test requests, track the status of requests in real time, and download test reports, minimizing the turnaround time, according to the company, which is based in Wilmington, DE.
