Technology and products

BxGenomics, BxInventory, and mLIMS

BxGenomics is a genomics analysis application "that features data mining capabilities and quick turnaround times."[2]

BxInventory is an "online inventory system specially designed for research laboratories."[3]

mLIMS is a web-based cloud laboratory information management system (LIMS) for animal colony management "that helps you put all of your animal resource management tasks in one place."[4] The software comes in five formats: Researchers, Enterprise, Facility, Complete, and Biotech. Features vary depending on the option.[4]

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
