FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tucson, AZ USA (October 3rd, 2005) A REVOLUTIONARY NEW SOFTWARE BOOSTS PRODUCTIVITY OF CELL LABS BY 60% A revolutionary new product - the Cell Culture Laboratory Information Management System (CCLims) - is boosting the productivity of Cell Culture Laboratories by 60%. Developed under sequential grants from the National Institutes of Health, the software has been validated by select cell culture facilities nationwide. The use of cultured cell models have been adopted as a valuable tool in applications in medicine and industry ranging from basic research to genetic analysis and prevention of bioterrorism. Until now, laboratories that focus on cell culture-related research lacked a comprehensive solution to track their cells through vast configurations of incubators, freezers and dewars through years of use. All too often, record keeping mistakes can result in wasted time, money, and effort spent growing the wrong cell lines. The CCLims manages all facets of a cell culture laboratory's records. A comprehensive transactions log maintains lists of all subcultures, freezes and thaws along with all growing conditions and a complete procedure listing. The CCLims has a unique frozen cells log that can track frozen cells throughout a laboratory's full complement of freezers and dewars. A fully integrated protocol engine performs calculations, cell counts and even keeps observations. The CCLims also has facilities for comprehensive labortory inventory management. Scott Waniger, the Manager of Cell Production at the National Cell Culture Center, said "We're sold on CCLims' efficiency in storing and tracking cell culture information covering a variety of sources and procedures. CCLims is easy, efficient, intuitive - and indispensable." Kathy Brown, a Research Specialist at the Arizona Cancer Center added "The CCLims provides continuity in the laboratory setting. When a laboratory technician moves on, information about their cell lines' growing conditions, frozen locations, media, procedures and observations are not lost in transition." This new product, created by Selznick Scientific Software, is available for $2495 ($695 Education/Government Discount) at http://www.cclims.com.
