In April 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a significant shift in food safety regulation by initiating the phase-out of several synthetic petroleum-based dyes. This includes commonly used additives such as Red 3, Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Blue 2, and Green 3. These dyes, long under scrutiny for their potential health risks, will…

In labs around the world, research is quietly disappearing. Notes are misplaced, spreadsheets get corrupted, files get overwritten, and critical findings never make it to publication. And the scariest part? Most labs don’t even realize it’s happening until it’s too late. If you’re still relying on paper notebooks, scattered spreadsheets, or outdated software, your lab might be bleeding data without…

For decades, paper lab notebooks have been the go-to method for documenting experiments, tracking observations, and storing research data. But as laboratories face increasing demands for data integrity, collaboration, and compliance, the limitations of traditional recordkeeping have become more apparent. Enter the Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN)—a modern solution designed to streamline workflows, boost productivity, and ensure data security in today’s…

The world of scientific research is undergoing a transformation—and at the center of it all is how data is managed, shared, and preserved. Beginning in 2025, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is enforcing a comprehensive Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy that will have a major impact on how research data is handled across academic institutions, laboratories, and clinical…

Scientific research has evolved far beyond lab benches and paper notebooks. Modern researchers rely on an ever-expanding digital ecosystem to support their work—from uncovering relevant literature to analyzing data, visualizing results, and publishing their findings. The right set of tools can make the difference between time-consuming processes and streamlined, collaborative, and reproducible research. Whether you’re a graduate student embarking on…

Academic research drives the innovations that shape our world—from life-saving medical treatments to groundbreaking environmental solutions. But behind every scientific breakthrough lies a mountain of data, observations, and experimental records. For decades, this information lived in paper notebooks, filed folders, and static spreadsheets. Today, that model is evolving—and LabLynx is leading the charge with its advanced Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN).…

In the fast-paced world of research, efficiency, accuracy, and compliance are critical to success. Whether in academic research, clinical trials, health and life sciences, manufacturing, or medical research, organizations are increasingly turning to Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELNs) to optimize workflows, enhance collaboration, and ensure data integrity. Traditional paper-based notebooks and fragmented digital tools no longer meet the demands of modern…

Scientific and industrial advancements rely on efficient data management, seamless collaboration, and strict regulatory compliance. Laboratories across multiple industries are shifting away from traditional paper-based documentation in favor of Electronic Laboratory Notebooks (ELNs)—powerful digital platforms that enhance research reproducibility, streamline workflows, and ensure data security. An ELN provides a centralized, searchable, and structured system for recording, managing, and sharing experimental…

Laboratories across scientific and industrial fields generate massive amounts of data daily, making structured, secure, and efficient management essential. Relying on traditional paper-based lab notebooks or disjointed digital solutions is no longer practical in an era where compliance, collaboration, and data integrity are critical. That’s where an Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) comes in. A modern ELN transforms the way laboratories…

The SLAS 2025 International Conference and Exhibition has once again set the stage for groundbreaking innovations in laboratory automation, AI-driven informatics, and digital transformation. As the laboratory sciences industry continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, SLAS 2025 provided a glimpse into the future—where cutting-edge automation, robotics, machine learning, and cloud-integrated lab management solutions are redefining efficiency, accuracy, and scalability…
