See how different laboratory environments leverage Sourcetable for enhanced data management and analysis
A pharmaceutical company uses Sourcetable to track batch testing results across multiple production sites. The system automatically flags deviations from specifications, generates trending reports for regulatory submissions, and maintains complete batch genealogy records. Result: 40% reduction in compliance documentation time and zero missed regulatory deadlines.
An environmental consulting firm manages water quality testing for multiple clients using Sourcetable's multi-site dashboard. The platform consolidates results from field instruments, tracks sampling locations with GPS coordinates, and generates automated client reports with regulatory compliance status. Result: Streamlined operations serving 3x more clients with the same team size.
A hospital laboratory processes thousands of patient samples daily using Sourcetable to manage quality control data. The system tracks internal QC performance, external proficiency testing results, and instrument maintenance schedules—all while maintaining HIPAA compliance. Result: Improved turnaround times and enhanced quality assurance documentation.
A materials testing facility uses Sourcetable to analyze mechanical properties across different testing standards. The platform automatically applies appropriate statistical methods, generates certificates of analysis, and maintains calibration records for all testing equipment. Result: Reduced testing errors and improved customer satisfaction scores.
Imagine you're analyzing HPLC results for compound purity across multiple sample batches. Traditional spreadsheets require manual calculations for retention time matching, peak area integration, and relative standard deviation calculations.
With Sourcetable, simply import your chromatography data and ask: "Calculate the RSD for all peak areas and flag any results above 2%". The AI instantly processes your data, applies the appropriate statistical functions, and highlights problematic samples—complete with control charts showing trending over time.
Processing microbiology results involves complex dilution calculations, statistical analysis of colony counts, and compliance with various pharmacopeial methods. Manual calculations are time-consuming and error-prone.
Using Sourcetable, upload your plate count data and request: "Apply USP 61 microbial limits testing calculations and generate a compliance summary". The system automatically handles dilution factors, applies appropriate statistical methods, and produces regulatory-compliant documentation.
Managing quality control data across multiple laboratory locations requires consistent formatting, centralized monitoring, and standardized reporting—typically a logistical nightmare with traditional tools.
Sourcetable consolidates data from all sites in real-time. Simply ask: "Show me control chart trends for all sites and identify any locations with declining performance". Get instant visibility into your entire laboratory network's performance with automated alerting for out-of-control conditions.
Connect directly to your LIMS, import CSV files from analytical instruments, or paste data from existing spreadsheets. Sourcetable automatically recognizes common laboratory data formats and suggests appropriate analysis templates.
Define acceptance criteria, control limits, and regulatory requirements using plain English. The AI understands laboratory terminology like "within 2 standard deviations" or "meets USP specifications" and sets up monitoring automatically.
Ask questions like "Which samples failed specification this week?" or "Generate a trending report for Method A precision data." Sourcetable applies the correct statistical methods and presents results in professional formats.
Automatically produce regulatory-compliant reports, certificates of analysis, and quality control summaries. All documentation includes proper statistical analysis, audit trails, and electronic signatures where required.
Yes, Sourcetable can import data from virtually any analytical instrument that exports to CSV, Excel, or text formats. We support direct integration with popular LIMS systems and can handle complex data structures including chromatography, spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry results.
Sourcetable maintains complete audit trails, supports electronic signatures, and provides data validation tools that meet FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements. All changes are tracked with timestamps and user identification, ensuring full traceability for regulatory inspections.
Sourcetable includes comprehensive statistical functions for laboratory applications: control charts (Shewhart, CUSUM, EWMA), method validation statistics (precision, accuracy, linearity), outlier detection (Grubbs, Dixon), and regulatory compliance calculations for USP, ICH, and ISO methods.
Absolutely. Sourcetable allows you to create and save custom templates for specific analytical methods, QC procedures, or regulatory requirements. Templates can include pre-configured calculations, acceptance criteria, and report formats that match your laboratory's standard operating procedures.
Sourcetable's AI is trained on scientific and laboratory terminology, understanding concepts like retention time, peak integration, method validation parameters, and regulatory specifications. You can communicate using standard laboratory language without needing to learn special syntax.
All data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, with enterprise-grade security measures including SOC 2 compliance. Your laboratory data remains completely private and is never used to train AI models or shared with other users. We support on-premises deployment for organizations with strict data governance requirements.
