LIIS was an open-source laboratory informatics application "for laboratories looking to store their sample or culture metadata on a central server."[2]

Product history

Students Matt Forster, David Sinclaire, Andrew Sanders, and Graham Fluet of Lethbridge College, in cooperation with Lethbridge Research Center, began a student project in 2013 to create a simple tool for managing sample metadata:

A need exists for a simple tool to curate laboratory culture collections and handle ever increasing sample metadata annotations. As existing LIMS systems are complicated and cost prohibitive, the decision was made to create a lightweight, open source solution available to laboratories involved in culture collections or sample curation.[2]

Eventually a code repository was started on GitHub in August 2013.[3] A beta release was offered August 23, followed by the first stable release five days later.[1]

At some point the GitHub repository was archived, and work was discontinued. With no updates since 2014, the project is considered abandoned.

Features

Features of LIIS included[1][2]:

  • import and export CSV spreadsheets
  • store general metadata designed to complement the environmental packages provided by the Genomic Standards Consortium
  • annotate and review records from multiple computer
  • private, searchable metadata library
  • web-based
  • user-based permissions
  • audit trail
  • standard field-based query

Hardware/software requirements

Unincluded dependencies were:

  • Apache 2.2+ (or equivalent)
  • PHP 5.3+
