Matrix Gemini™ LIMS Stability

Stability Study Management Made Easy

Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability provides a complete stability management system for laboratories and manufacturing organizations that need to configure, run, monitor, and report on stability studies with confidence.

Designed for pharmaceutical, manufacturing, contract stability, and other regulated environments, the system gives teams control over stability protocols, batches or lots, storage conditions, pull schedules, test assignments, container placement, chamber inventory, results, and shelf-life reporting.

With configurable workflows, built-in reporting, and support for regulatory requirements, Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability helps laboratories reduce manual administration, improve operational visibility, and ensure that stability studies are performed consistently from protocol design through final reporting.

What is Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability?

Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability is a configurable LIMS solution for managing the full lifecycle of stability studies. Users can create and authorize study protocols, define associated batches or lots, set storage conditions, schedule pulls, assign tests, and manage container placement and movement across chambers. The system supports standard and ad hoc study design, including pull times, condition cycling, test specifications, and projected shelf-life analysis. It can also be used for contract stability operations, including quote creation and chamber capacity reporting. By centralizing study setup, sample movement, testing, reporting, and auditability, Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability helps teams move away from manual tracking and fragmented spreadsheets toward a controlled, traceable, and efficient stability workflow.

Support placement, movement, cycling, pulling, and scrapping of containers, with dashboards and workflows that help teams identify containers approaching pull dates or requiring condition cycling.

R

Saves Staff Time

Automatically generate samples, labels, pull schedules, test assignments, and reports to reduce repetitive manual administration and support consistent execution.

R

Supports Shelf-Life Projections

Use stability results for trend analysis and projected shelf-life reporting, with statistical analysis options available through Northwest Analytical’s Quality Analyst integration.

R

Helps Maintain Regulatory Confidence

The system includes functionality that assists with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, including electronic signature support, password management, session timeouts, audit trails, and searchable event logs.

R

Highly Configurable and Future-Proof

Matrix Gemini LIMS solutions are built around a standard product core with configuration tools that allow workflows, terminology, fields, and processes to be adapted to customer requirements.

コア機能/モジュール

Protocol Design (placeholder icon)

Protocol Design

Create stability protocols that define study details, product or substance information, required fields, imported documents, conditions, pulls, and tests. Commonly used protocols can be copied to accelerate setup for new studies.

Batch and Lot Management (placeholder icon)

Batch and Lot Management

Define multiple batches or lots within a study, including manufacturing site, batch size, package type, package size, initiation dates, storage conditions, pull schedules, test assignments, and specifications.

Conditions and Condition Cycling (placeholder icon)

Conditions and Condition Cycling

Select storage conditions from a library or add ad hoc conditions to a batch. Define temperature, humidity, orientation, extra containers, and condition cycling requirements to reflect the needs of each study.

Pull Scheduling (placeholder icon)

Pull Scheduling

Create pull schedules using common time units such as months, weeks, or days. Pull windows can be defined to specify the acceptable number of days before or after a scheduled pull date.

Test Assignment and Results (placeholder icon)

Test Assignment and Results

Assign tests to each pull point and condition, define replicate requirements, specify laboratories, manage test limits, and trend results against product, test, or study-batch specifications.

Placement, Movement, and Pulling (placeholder icon)

Placement, Movement, and Pulling

Place containers into storage chambers, record actual placement dates and times, generate placement labels, move or cycle containers, and pull samples when scheduled.

Chamber Inventory (placeholder icon)

Chamber Inventory

Monitor study batches and associated chambers within the system, with the ability to drill into chamber inventory to understand what is being stored and where.

Reporting and Shelf-Life Analysis (placeholder icon)

Reporting and Shelf-Life Analysis

Generate standard reports, including protocol design, final reports, actual pull summaries, pull schedules, chamber inventory, and containers to be placed. Reports can be exported in PDF, Excel, and Word formats.

Why Choose Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability?

Stability studies are complex, time-sensitive, and highly dependent on accurate coordination between protocols, containers, chambers, pulls, tests, and reporting. Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability brings these moving parts together into a single, configurable system.

Instead of relying on manual schedules, disconnected spreadsheets, and paper-based checks, laboratories can use Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability to guide users through the required workflow, prompt correct procedures, and automate routine tasks. The system supports both standalone stability operations and use alongside Matrix Gemini LIMS.

For regulated laboratories, Matrix Gemini LIMS Stability provides traceability, auditability, and validation support to help reduce implementation risk and maintain confidence in study execution.

仕組み

1. Design the Study Protocol

Create, copy, or authorize a stability protocol, define study details, associate products or substances, and configure required conditions, pulls, tests, and specifications.

2. Define Batches or Lots

Add one or more batches to the study, with batch-specific details such as manufacturing site, package type, initiation date, pull schedule, storage conditions, and tests.

3. Place Containers into Storage

Assign containers to the correct chamber and storage condition, record placement details, and generate labels as needed.

4. Cycle, Move, and Monitor Containers

Manage chamber inventory, move containers when required, and cycle containers according to the study protocol.

5. Pull Samples at the Right Time

Search for scheduled pulls, record actual pull date and time, confirm the number of containers pulled, and return non-destructive weight-test containers to storage where required.

6. Record Results and Generate Reports

Capture test results, trend them against applicable limits, generate standard reports, and support final reporting with shelf-life projections where required.
