SoftMolecular^®

SCC’s SoftMolecular information system empowers users in all aspects of the genetic testing process, including experimental design, direction of workflows through automated equipment, management of samples, and tracking of inventory levels.

The intuitive workflow functionality of SoftMolecular enables users to track cases through DNA/RNA determination, amplification, detection, and interpretation. The robust reporting functionality found in the SoftMolecular module gives users an accurate, user-friendly data analysis and results reporting capability that facilitates comprehension of results from complex experimental design. Features such as enterprise-wide reporting enables users to track completed tests and remaining tasks to be completed, while daily manager worklist queues assist managers in keeping their technologists informed of daily changes in the experimental lifecycle. SoftMolecular offers seamless integration and interfacing with sequencing and fragment analysis instruments, providing efficient data management and minimal loss due to human error.

Offered as part of each information system in SCC’s Genetics Information System Suite, the Interpretive Workstation utility is a robust, yet easy-to-use, informatics module that readily interfaces with SoftMolecular and allows for the management of information from sources originating across multiple modules, including SoftMolecular. The Interpretive Workstation provides both researchers and clinicians (for example, those deriving information from anatomical pathology laboratories) a central access point for entering interpretive information derived from test results that originate in other SCC software applications, as well as entering and editing conclusions from large sample volumes, experimental workflows, and other information management concerns that are visible to the enterprise from one central location through the informatics pipeline.
