GCCL to be the first in the industry sector to adopt Lab Information Management System

5 September 2023

Korean clinical trial sample analysis company, GCCL, announced on September 5th that it has implemented the Lab Information Management System (LIMS) for the first time in the sample analysis industry.

The Thermo Scientific™ Watson™ LIMS by Thermo Scientific, which GCCL has adopted, is a widely recognized software used by global CROs, pharmaceutical companies, and regulatory authorities. It is known for supporting the entire bioanalytic workflow, ranging from assay validation for pharmacodynamic analysis of biologics and chemical pharmaceuticals to sample analysis and reporting. Additionally, GCCL has integrated the Immune Response Module to enhance its bioanalytic services, specifically supporting immunogenicity analysis workflows.

GCCL's CEO, Song Hyun Yang, emphasized their commitment to data accuracy, stating, "Striving for better data accuracy is at the core of our company as a sample analysis service provider." He further noted that the introduction of LIMS allows them to provide high-quality sample analysis services in line with global guidelines.

With the server now in place, GCCL is planning to complete the Computer System Validation (CSV) and begin using the system for pharmacodynamic analysis of chemical and biologic pharmaceuticals, as well as immunogenicity analysis of biopharmaceuticals, starting in Q1 of the next year.
