Mobiolink

Reagent lot validation

Staying compliant with laboratory regulations shouldn't stall your daily operations. Mobiolink automates the validation of new reagent lots: new lots are detected automatically upon arrival and flagged for validation. During regular batch setups, Mobiolink prompts users about the parallel test so it slots directly into their ongoing routine workflow.

Smart lot detection & status management

The moment new reagents are checked into the laboratory inventory, Mobiolink identifies the new lot numbers and automatically assigns them a 'To be tested' (pending validation) status. No manual logging or tracking is required.

Context-aware alerts during batch setup

Users do not need to plan separate, dedicated validation runs. When setting up a routine processing batch — such as a Preparation Run or a PCR Run — Mobiolink scans the components in use in the background. If a new, unvalidated lot is detected for any of the reagents, the system immediately displays a smart reminder.

Seamless routine integration

Instead of stopping the routine workflow, the operator can choose to validate the new reagent lot on the fly:

  • Sample selection: the user selects an existing sample within the current run to act as the parallel test matrix.
  • Smart positioning: the operator defines the position of the test sample within the run and maps the specific pending reagent to it.
  • Background execution: the routine test and the parallel validation test run simultaneously within the exact same batch.

Automated evaluation & reporting

Upon completion of the run, Mobiolink imports and interprets the raw measurement data and immediately evaluates whether the parallel test results fall within the predefined quality control thresholds. Once processed, the designated validator receives an instant system notification to review and sign off on the run. Mobiolink automatically generates a fully compliant validation protocol, archives it, and links it directly to the reagent lot. As soon as all reagents within a kit have passed validation, the lot is cleared and can be promoted to the 'Current Lot' at the scheduled activation time.
