This presentation will review the UCSD CALM Toxicology Laboratory experience using a home-brew MS Access database for record keeping and tracking of mass spectrometry LDT reagents, chemicals, mobile phases, primary standards, calibrators, etc. Using the system delivered hours of time saved, easier investigation of LDT materials as a possible source of complaints, non-conforming events, QC or PT problems, and no-stress review of documentation during inspections. SOP and database templates for the system will be available for download from the MSACL-CAC webpage after the webinar.
