Case Study: Ed Leaders Network (ELN) achieves seamless lab digitalization and streamlined sample management with eLabNext

eLabNext Makes Digitalization Seamless for Fraunhofer Institute for Cell Therapy and Immunology IZI

Ed Leaders Network (ELN) needed to modernize lab documentation and collaboration: teams were burdened by paper lab notebooks, lengthy searches through decades of archives, and poor sample tracking and readability across multiple departments. To address these challenges they turned to eLabNext and its digital lab platform (eLabJournal) to replace manual record‑keeping and enable searchable, organized project documentation.

eLabNext implemented eLabJournal to centralize protocols, sample management, and experiment records, making archives instantly searchable and enabling easy protocol sharing across teams. The solution improved collaboration and inventory control, reduced time spent rewriting repetitive protocols, and accelerated troubleshooting by tracing contaminated samples — delivering more accessible data and saving the organization time, effort, and cost.
