Tracking of Chemical Resources

iCHEMS integrates a robust chemical information database management system with the front-end interface on the cabinet. The Highlight of the system is that it tracks the usage of chemicals robustly. Similar to the way library books are checked-in and checked-out, the system not only captures, creates, and stores information of any new or existing laboratory chemicals, but also it executes and maintains it in a real-time and consistent manner. iCHEMS reduces the hassle of manual inventory management in hardcopies, saving time, space and effort and thereby increase the efficiency of the entire laboratory. In addition, the system stores all audit history and is CFR part-11-compliant.
