The challenge: Non-integrated lab management systems and manual bioassay analysis hamper drug discovery

Drug discovery and biopharmaceutical manufacturing rely on bioassays extensively. However, the lack of integration between assay analysis and lab management software is a major hindrance to research. Labs using non-integrated systems rely on manual work for assay-related analysis, which not only requires significant effort but also elevates the risk of human errors. Scientists, hence, require fully integrated software solutions that can improve assay analysis substantially through seamless integration with lab management software systems like laboratory information management systems (LIMS), scientific data management systems (SDMS), Sample Management Software, Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELN), etc.

The fix: Integrated assay analysis solutions powered by AI platform, tcgmcube

At TCG Digital, we offer a wide range of solutions enabling seamless integration with lab management software systems. With these solutions at your disposal, you can boost productivity and efficiency, whilst reducing the risk of errors. Our assay analysis solutions effectively cater to the different stages of drug development right from In vitro biology assays, In vitro ADME assays, pharmacokinetic (PK) studies, and In vivo pharmacology.

The integrated assay analysis solutions are built on the robust foundation of tcgmcube, an end-to-end AI platform that powers data analytics with comprehensive statistical and mathematical models, offering a transformative approach to assay analysis.
