[Arabidopsis] Keeping track of arabidopsis seed stocks

Hi Brian and others,

We have just purchased a program that might be helpful for this
purpose - it is called LabCollector. It is designed to be an intranet
program and allows you password-protected access from all over the
world. The program supports really fancy options, such as barcoding,
or simpler options such as electronically storing stock records. It
is designed to keep track of lab stocks, ordering, important
documents, etc. I am not making an endorsement here - we have just
gotten the software and have not had the opportunity to really test
it. Perhaps there are others out there who have given it a more
thorough testing? At any rate, you can give it a look and play with
it a bit online at:

We did look for other software, but found most of it wasn't really
designed for the molecular biology lab or was just over-the-top with
unnecessary bells and whistles.

Good Luck,
Ben
