Lab tech uses LIMS software in a forensic lab

Understanding the challenges
of forensic testing

For forensic testing laboratories, managing your test and sample data can present a significant challenge. Forensic facilities employ stringent sample collection and storage protocols to ensure chain of custody and minimize the potential for degradation. While flexibility is critical, so is the ability to comply with stringent regulations, including the American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors/Laboratory Accreditation Board (ASCLD/LAB) and ISO 17025. How can your lab ensure secure, traceable, defensible data that complies with quality and regulatory controls across a variety of materials and test protocols?
