How Can LINK Help With Flow Cytometry?
LINK is the software solution for automated analytical data import, analysis, and reporting. LINK scans network locations for new measurement files, extracts all useful data, and copies this data directly to a centralized database. The powerful analysis user-interface allows datasets to be aggregated, grouped, and visualized in the form of charts/tables/images. User-customizable analysis templates deliver rapid and error-free data visualization, with the ability to be replicated across many studies and shared within your organization.
All instrument settings and parameters calculated by the instrument software are copied to the LINK database, including full underlying raw data curves. Sample metadata may be easily assigned and incorporated within the analysis to integrate various product/process variables. LINK has been demonstrated to deliver time savings more than 90% and provide a highly affordable fully automated data management and analysis solution.
