Standardized Software Solution for an Automated Data Evaluation in Analytical Measurement

Martin Adam, Heidi Fleischer, Kerstin Thurow

Abstract

To reduce the high degree of manual operation and processing time as well as human errors the automation in chemical analysis has become important in the last years. As a result a fast and automated data evaluation is required to overcome the high amount of measurement data. To enable the integration of various analytical devices with different device software a standardized solution without any programming knowledge should be preferred. Additionally the data evaluation should be accessible via any computer or mobile device within the laboratory network. The presented software called Project ADE is implemented as a web application to persist in a multi-user environment. To transmit the preevaluated results from the device software to the Project ADE the exported XML report files are uploaded and imported to the entities database using the software Data Upload. An algorithm identifies the affiliation of a sample within one measurement series with a calculation type (e.g. routine measurement, method validation). The calculated results are presented in tables and diagrams on different information levels (general, detailed for one analyte or sample).
