TECHNIDATA interfaces its LIS with the WASPLab microbiology lab automaton system

TECHNIDATA, the supplier of software for clinical laboratories and biobanks, has extended its presence in the field of Microbiology by interfacing its laboratory information system with WASPLab from the COPAN Group, a leading manufacturer of specimen collection and transport systems.

AN OPTIMIZED INTERFACE FOR FULLY AUTOMATED MICROBIOLOGY PROCESSES

Designed with microbiologists, TECHNIDATA’s LIS and microbiology middleware solutions are fully dedicated to the modern discipline. These software solutions offer a smart and flexible workflow designer for paperless processes, comprehensive traceability that meets ISO 15189 requirements, and state-of–the-art connectivity with the most widely-used instruments and automation solutions.

To further extend its offering in microbiology, TECHNIDATA has worked with COPAN to develop a fully featured interface between its own laboratory information system and the WASPLab, COPAN’s solution for automated specimen processing and digital microbiology.

“Developed in close cooperation with TECHNIDATA, the WASPLab driver manages the most comprehensive sets of information available on TECHNIDATA’s LIS and middleware solutions, to ensure full traceability and streamlined automated workflows,” explains Mario Savarese, Chief Strategy Officer at COPAN.

“The wealth of information either input or acquired by TECHNIDATA’s various solutions is managed easily via a multi-criteria epidemiology module, which enables simple to complex data extractions to be applied to nosocomial infections, and historical searches of Multi-Drug Resistant Organisms”, adds Stéphane Agay, Product Line Marketing Director and Scientific Advisor at TECHNIDATA.

CULTURE COLLECTION MANAGEMENT: A STEP FORWARD IN MICROBIOLOGY

Additionally, TECHNIDATA’s microbiology solutions offer the most complete and innovative tools to manage the modern microbiology laboratory, when interfaced with TDBioBank, TECHNIDATA’s biorepository management module.

“We are one of the few software companies that offer such a complete Microbiology laboratory information system, one that can also fully manage culture collections,” concludes Stéphane Agay.
