Track samples in the context of the work that changes them

Follow samples and batches through workflow execution, state changes, lineage, files, measurements, instrument results, review, and long-term history instead of treating a sample as an isolated row in a registry.

FlaskTrack keeps sample identity connected to the procedures, materials, people, data, and decisions that produced its current state.

Replace spreadsheets, disconnected notebooks, and manual status tracking with structured sample records connected to protocols, workflows, operational events, files, and reviewable operational history.

Track the full sample lifecycle

Samples are connected to protocols, workflow steps, events, files, batches, users, compliance records, procurement requirements, and reporting systems.

🧪
Sample Records Maintain structured sample records with workflow assignments, status tracking, files, notes, metadata, and operational history.
Materials Used by Each Sample Connect inventory consumption and lot history to the samples, batches, and protocol steps that used each material.
📦
Batch Management Group samples into batches for coordinated scheduling, execution, reporting, and operational oversight.
🔁
Workflow Execution Connect samples to protocol steps, timing requirements, hold points, completion events, and structured data capture.
📜
Event History Preserve sample events, measurements, observations, attachments, state transitions, and completion records.

Built for traceability and chain of custody

Every sample action becomes part of a permanent operational history. Teams can review what happened, when it happened, who performed the work, and which records support the outcome.

  • ✔ Track samples across workflow execution and batch operations
  • ✔ Capture step-specific observations, measurements, and files
  • ✔ Preserve complete sample event history and audit trails
  • ✔ Connect samples to protocols, species, materials, users, and reports
  • ✔ Review sample progress across batches and operational dashboards
  • ✔ Maintain chain-of-custody style records for operational review
  • ✔ Track lineage between workflows, batches, and samples
  • ✔ Export sample data through reports, APIs, and analytical systems

More than a laboratory sample spreadsheet

🧬
Sample Lineage Understand how samples relate to workflows, batches, biological materials, and operational history.
📂
Linked Files Attach images, documents, evidence, reports, SOPs, and supporting records directly to samples.
📊
Operational Reporting Build dashboards and reports across samples, batches, workflows, events, and compliance activity.
⛓️
Audit-Ready History Preserve actor attribution, timestamps, review records, and operational evidence.

Sample tracking software for operational research laboratories

FlaskTrack gives research teams a structured way to understand where samples are, what happened to them, who performed the work, what data was captured, and which records support the outcome.

Buyer evaluation

A sample record is only useful when the lifecycle is defined

Before selecting software, agree on identity, lineage, custody, state transitions, required evidence, retention, and exception handling.

Identity and lineage

Test how parent-child relationships, batches, splits, merges, transfers, aliases, and external identifiers are represented.

Lifecycle control

Define allowed states, responsible roles, required observations, approvals, holds, disposal, and archival.

Retrieval and export

Reconstruct and export a representative sample with its workflow history, files, events, approvals, and related records.

Track every sample from creation to completion

Whether managing tissue culture, microbiology, mycology, synthetic biology, biotechnology, or research operations, FlaskTrack helps teams maintain visibility, traceability, and accountability across the entire sample lifecycle.
