Bika Water

Most of the Bika Water environmental management functionality developed with the assistance of pollution experts, made the migration to Bika (and Senaite) LIMS for Water already some remain here. The main difference with other Bika branches, is the comprehensive water quality configuration available for it


Standard Bika LIMS workflow, QC, Role based security, logs and audit trails, document management etc. remain in place Environmental Management In Bika LIMS Many features in standard Bika and Senaite LIMS originate in environmental labs, good examples are Sampling Rounds for recurring field trips and surveys SRs create all the documentation, Sample records, stickers for a sampling round with a few clicks from Sampling Round template. Very good for periodically repeated field trips and surveys Sample partitions To keep differently preserved Samples from the same Sampling event apart Sample and Preserver roles Pre-preserved containers Composite samples We hope to see much of the following Bika Water functionality integrated and released on the Senaite code base Significant Figures for results Results cannot be reported with decimal digits beyond the certainty of the method used.

Environmental Management

In Bika LIMS

Many features in standard Bika and Senaite LIMS originate in environmental labs, good examples are

Sampling Rounds for recurring field trips and surveys

SRs create all the documentation, Sample records, stickers for a sampling round with a few clicks from Sampling Round template. Very good for periodically repeated field trips and surveys

Sample partitions

To keep differently preserved Samples from the same Sampling event apart

Sample and Preserver roles
Pre-preserved containers
Composite samples

We hope to see much of the following Bika Water functionality integrated and released on the Senaite code base

Significant Figures for results

Results cannot be reported with decimal digits beyond the certainty of the method used. A complicated knot when tied into Senate's decimal precision settings, resolved with ISO experts and diligent test writing;-)

Water Quality LIMS Configuration

Bika Water can be implemented preconfigured with a comprehensive pollution control set-up for start-up savings. Manually configuring Bika installations would, depending complexity otherwise take a one to two weeks
