Because NFS (National Forensic Service) analyzes a lot of Forensic DNA samples in Korea, it is very important to work very fast and accurately. In NFS DNA analysis section, We have worked using 8 strip PCR tube and 8 channel multi-pipet for sample treatment, and 96 well type CE electrophoresis injection system, so far. NFS has developed and used NFS-LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) which contains all the informations about the cases and samples. This time, NFS western district office s DNA analysis section has developed a new Excel software to manage total process in DNA analysis which covers from DNA evidence sampling to CE. This Excel software can make a lot of laboratory documents (sampling sheet, DNA sample list, CE injection List, etc.), keep them as a computer file and print them for laboratory use. This software uses NFS-LIMS information and processes samples in 96 unit which is constituted by 8 strip PCR tube x 12 lanes. We (NFS-western DNA Lab) expect that we can work more conveniently, fast and accurately by this new Excel software.
