Is Your Lab Losing Money on Expired Samples? A Guide to Sample Validity Management

Is Your Lab Losing Money on Expired Samples? A Guide to Sample Validity Management

Published: 5/31/2025

Beyond reagents and equipment, lab samples often represent an immense investment in time, resources, and even patient trust. Whether they are precious biological specimens, environmental samples, or synthesized compounds, their validity is time-dependent. Discovering an expired or compromised sample often means losing weeks or months of work, ethical implications, or even the need to recollect (if possible), incurring significant hidden costs.

Effective lab sample management goes beyond simply knowing where a sample is stored. It requires precise biological sample tracking and validity monitoring to ensure optimal utilization and prevent loss.

Key aspects of successful sample validity management include:

  • Date-Specific Validity: Tracking not just collection dates, but also processing dates that may influence a sample's effective "expiry."
  • Storage Condition Monitoring: Ensuring samples remain viable under specified conditions.
  • Usage Prioritization: Utilizing samples based on their stability windows to prevent spoilage.

How LabSure Protects Your Valuable Samples:

LabSure provides a crucial layer of protection for your sample inventory by focusing on their critical time-sensitive nature:

  • Track Sample Expiry Dates: Log the initial collection date, processing date, or a derived expiry date for any type of sample.
  • Proactive Validity Alerts: Receive automated reminders well before a sample's viability window closes, prompting you to analyze, process, or properly archive it.
  • Detailed Sample Notes: Attach specific storage conditions, processing instructions, or associated project IDs directly to each sample record for comprehensive information at your fingertips.

By integrating LabSure, you actively prevent sample expiry and ensure research sample loss prevention. Safeguard the integrity and value of your specimens, ensuring sample viability and making every sample count.
