Turbo charge lab workflow with DWK premium services and precision labware
Research lab scientists are always looking for ways to improve efficiency and operational excellence.
Many labs rely on automation approaches and LIMS combined with DWK services and labware to improve productivity. Others propel their research by engaging outside services that help boost throughput and reduce costs. Applying lean manufacturing principles in the lab is another avenue researchers are exploring.
Life Sciences Research
The typical workflow for Research labs is shown above. In fact, the lab environment’s successful operation is predicated on the successful definition and adherence to workflows.
Let’s take a deep dive into the many opportunities within these steps where researchers can gain significant advantages by leaning on services and products from DWK Life Sciences.
Pre-bar coded and ready-to-use.
Bar coding increases workflows, reduces errors, and saves time and money. DWK can customize a bar code solution to meet many specific applications. DWK bar codes read correctly every time, remain adhered to the container, and are durable enough to withstand tough environments. DWK uses a variety of symbologies and materials to provide unique identification solutions for a range of facilities.
DWK tracks all barcodes through a stringent Sequence Management program, so users can rest assured that each container is uniquely identified. Users can choose from these DWK bar code formats: pressure sensitive labels, direct mark, laser etched, and ceramic I.D.
Cleaning and sterilization services charge-up quality.
Here’s a quick rundown of DWK’s cleaning and sterilization services: Rinse/Cleaning: WFI Rinse (Containers ≤ 250mL), USP Purified Rinse (Containers ≥ 250mL), Particulate Cleaning, Depyrogenation, Validated 3-Log Reduction. Sterilization: Autoclave (Stoppers, Seals), Sterile Foil Wrap Process (Dry Heat), TOC Process, Irradiation
Particulate contamination is always a top-of-mind concern for researchers as it can block successful outcomes and product realization. DWK Life Sciences can deliver primary packaging components and labware particulate cleaned and validated to meet the allowable particulate limits according to USP <788>. DWK uses USP or WFI purified water, HEPA filtered, and package items in certified class 100/10 cleanrooms.
Sterility in the research world is a matter of acknowledged acceptable limits. DWK Life Sciences offers products that meet the acceptable Sterility Assurance Level (SAL). Typically a SAL of 10-6 is required; probability of a non-sterile unit is less than one in a million.
Must have products for Life Science Research—Media bottles, WHEATON® CELLine™ flasks, roller racks and bottles for cell culturing. Lyophilization/cryo/scintillation vials and ampules for storing/stabilizing lab samples. Vials, tubes, plates, racks, HPLC reservoirs, and NMR tubes for chromatography.
