Brooks Automation, Inc. develops and distributes automation and cryogenics solutions. Its life sciences subsidiary develops and distributes sample management solutions.

History

In late August 2017, RURO Inc. announced that its FreezerPro sample management solution was acquired by Brooks Automation, which also acquired a license for distribution and sales of RURO's BiobankPro.[1] RURO indicated on its website that its "customers will continue to receive RURO’s outstanding Support services through their existing Support Contracts. New FreezerPro customers will continue to find information about FreezerPro on RURO’s website until the transition" is complete, roughly to the end of 2017.[2] Given the press release language, RURO presumably still develops the BiobankPro software.

In August 2018, Brooks announced it had sold semiconductor cryogenics business to Edwards Vacuum, LLC.[3]

In February 2020, Brooks announced that it had acquired Ruro in full, for $15 million. Brooks added: "We have worked with RURO in recent years and found their solutions are very effective at resolving the challenges of integrating multi-laboratory workflows, managing distributed inventories, and providing information security in a single solution. We are in an ideal position to offer and implement these comprehensive software solutions with increased value for our customers."[4]

In September 2021, Brooks announced that "Brooks Life Sciences Services and Products businesses will be rebranded under the creation of a new identity – Azenta Life Sciences ('Azenta')."[5] With the change, numerous products disappeared from the website, and one product (Limfinity LIMS) changed name. It's not clear if BiobankPro, BioInventory, and Sprint 6 were discontinued.

Former technology and products

BiobankPro was a "web-based clinical and translational sample management software application to manage all aspects of a sample lifecycle."[6]

BioInventory provided "24/7 virtual access to their inventory, shipment and receipt status for samples stored anywhere at our network of biorepositories in the U.S., Germany, Singapore, and China."[7]

Sprint 6 was a high-throughput screening automation solution with "a powerful and dynamic scheduling algorithm to coordinate research processes in real-time."[8]

Technology and products

LimitLIS, Azenta Lifecycle Management Platform, and FreezerPro

LimitLIS is a pre-configured web- and cloud-based laboratory information system (LIS) "that can quickly power-up laboratories with secure software for sample tracking and data management."[9] The software is part of the Limfinity informatics platform and was released in June 2016.[10]

Azenta Lifecycle Management Platform (formerly Limfinity LIMS[11]) is a laboratory information management system (LIMS) "designed to provide a comprehensive solution to enterprise-level applications" and be "highly configurable allowing it to adapt to any new challenges in line with your company requirements."[12]

Both LimitLIS and Limfinity LIMS have pre-configured options for COVID-19 testing.[13]

FreezerPro "is a scalable web-based sample inventory management system ideal for users managing hundreds of collections in all types of organizations ranging from lower throughput labs to central biorepositories with millions of records."[14] The software comes in Standard, Enterprise, and Elite versions.

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
