Nautilus LIMS™ for Dynamic Discovery and R&D Environments

To accelerate new discoveries and get products to market as quickly as possible, R&D and manufacturing labs have to reconfigure and change on the fly. Data management can't be a bottleneck.

Developed in partnership with customers in fast-paced R&D environments, the Thermo Scientific™ Nautilus LIMS™ for Dynamic Discovery and R&D Environments is a highly flexible, easily configurable system that increases workflow efficiency, throughput and data reliability while simplifying administration, sample traceability and regulatory compliance.

• Easy-to-use toolkits allow quick configuration to keep up with the pace of operations, helping managers make better-informed decisions, faster than ever
• Automated complex plate-handling functionality and patented graphical utilities facilitate data tracking and management; even nonexpert users can map and track processes with ease
• Clients can create workflows, plot sample lifecycles and automate actions across disparate platforms while still integrating regulated processes that adhere to GLP and 21 CFR Part 11 guidelines
• A flexible, intuitive interface—fully accessible using a Windows™ Client or standard web service—graphically maps laboratory workflows to meet the needs of even the most rapidly changing environments

Increases Throughput and Productivity

• Simplifies the definition of plate configurations and fill patterns, letting users build and format work action and decision-tree processes against project requirements
• Enables increased throughput, advanced plate handling and automation via intuitive graphical workflows, plate editors and built-in integration functionality
• Improves both productivity and accuracy of results by eliminating manual, error-prone processes
• Integrates LIMS and analytical systems within a single interface, allowing users to directly compare analyses from disparate instruments

Reduces Total Cost of Ownership

• Built-in instrument integration and full plate-handling functionality delivers significant productivity gains right out of the box
• Standard integration functionality allows data to be easily imported—without customized coding—from a variety of analytical instruments
• Instrument integration enables rapid access to up-to-the-minute raw and derived data that impact every phase of laboratory processes

Fully Supports Regulatory Compliance

• Database design utilizes an Oracle™ RDBMS to enforce data security, auditability and compliance; unique system architecture enables integration with the entire laboratory in a flexible, secure manner that ensures the data authenticity, integrity and traceability
• System further supports 21 CFR Part 11 compliance through the use of configurable signature templates and advanced audit capabilities
• An intuitive web interface facilitates communication and interaction with systems throughout the organization as well as with partner facilities and regulatory agencies
