The LIMS for Biobanking
Achieve maximum efficiency and reliability in sample storage and management with SAMPLES
The requirements for your biobanking solution range from efficient sample and data management, strict compliance and maximum security of sensitive data to an intuitive and modern user interface?
SAMPLES offers even more. As a highly flexible LIMS and Lab Execution System, it not only offers a wide range of needs-oriented features, but can also be optimally integrated into your existing IT environment thanks to its modern and open software architecture.
SAMPLES also connects you to the desired applications and devices, offering maximum performance and connectivity for your laboratory.
- Tissue / FFPE
- DNA / RNA
- Blood Samples
- Soil Samples
- Water Samples
Use cases in practice
Biomarker Discovery
Biotype GmbH develops molecular genetic test kits for oncology and manages their biobank samples with SAMPLES. For development, the company relies on various sample types, each requiring different storage conditions. The top priority is the unambiguous assignment of all samples and their results.

Compliance | Storage Recommendations | Copy Sample Boxes | Record and Analyze Results | Plate Handling
Clinical Traits
The University Hospital Dresden manages over 30,000 samples for clinical studies using SAMPLES. The samples are collected from patients, recorded in clinical trial software, and transferred to SAMPLES via an HL7 interface. The arrival at the laboratory is confirmed by barcode, and the samples are stored accordingly.

SAMPLES is modern, comprehensive biobanking
With SAMPLES you always have all sample information to hand. The application assists you intuitively and clearly through your daily laboratory routine.
Thanks to a wide range of customization options, you can adapt SAMPLES easily, quickly and flexibly to your requirements. Create your own order with number series, barcodes, sample types, studies or a sophisticated storage system.
The highlights for your biobanking
Barcodes
SAMPLES naturally supports the use of barcodes, as well as the integration of barcode scanners and barcode printers.
Each sample receives its own barcode. This ensures it can be unambiguously assigned and identified at any time. You can easily configure how exactly the underlying sample numbers are defined and created in SAMPLES.
Automatic Storage Recommendations
The reliable and transparent storage of your samples is particularly important to you. With SAMPLES, you can easily sort your samples into storage locations, compartments and boxes.
SAMPLES automatically suggests where the next free space for your sample is. The application takes into account the specifics of your sample and makes a storage suggestion based on the sample type and study or project.
Orders, Test Plans, and Interfaces
With SAMPLES, you can define which tests are to be carried out on each of your samples with just a few clicks.
If your samples originate from external test orders, they can easily be analyzed via an interface such as via an interface such as HL7 FHIR. Through this secure data exchange, the test results can be sent back to the client when needed.

Individual configuration
Every laboratory is different. This is why you can easily set up everything yourself in SAMPLES according to your requirements: Parameters, methods, sample types, studies, etc.
SAMPLES not only offers you full flexibility for standard processes. For individual processes or spontaneous additional information, simply use the freely configurable fields and catalogs of SAMPLES.
Subsamples and Aliquots
With SAMPLES, you can also map the sharing of your samples and reliably trace the child samples at any time.
You can store aliquots of the same sample at different storage locations if required.
SAMPLES also allows you to decide for yourself whether a sample is used up during the test or remains in place.
Data Export and Analysis
SAMPLES offers you complete freedom for your data. If required, you can easily export sample lists, storage location allocations and all your measurement results to Excel at any time for further use.
Do you use software for evaluations that you would like to continue using? Python-based analysis scripts, written in Jupyter Notebook can be integrated into SAMPLES and enable direct exchange. Please feel free to contact us.
