Here are the features an ELN needs to have before you can be assured that you are GLP compliant: There are principles that apply in particular to electronic lab notebooks, which mostly prescribe how data should be stored, secured and managed. Let’s start with the Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) which were introduced by the OECD. A simple but sophisticated search experience, allowing you to retrieve your data by author, tag, unique ID, textual content, timestamp, and/or structured data query (for example, “find all entries tagged as Western Blot where the Embryonic days are equal to 12”). As a researcher or team leader, you should be able to find your research data in seconds.Mobile and tablet compatibility, as well as responsive design, allowing researchers to use their preferred device to record their experiment notes.This is personally one of my favorite productivity features in Labfolder. Protocol templates which you can re-use to save time on repetitive tasks, and share with your team.You need to ensure that the annotations are created as an image overlay and do not alter the raw data that you uploaded. The ability to import images and add annotations.A spreadsheet tool which allows you to create tables, enter and format data, perform calculations and create graphs within the ELN, as well as import from and export to Excel.Ideally, the ELN should allow you to import existing Word documents and keep editing them within the tool, and vice versa when exporting from your digital notebook to a Word file. A text processor which allows you to write notes and format them, as you would do with Microsoft Word.An electronic lab notebook must be able to create, import, store and retrieve all important data types in digital format.
