Hi All,
I am seeking advice about any software that can be used for creating
and tracking seeds, plant specimens etc using a barcoding system. Our
lab will have a large population of Brachypodium, and we'd like to
figure out a way to improve our cataloging/tracking system before
we're flooded with samples. I'm really interested in using software
that can print sample-specific labels in various sizes and can also
be used with a mobile scanning unit like a PDA. I've done some
research and found asset tracking software like that from
www.redbeam.com and label-making software like Bar Tender, but I'm
wondering if there are better options that other labs use to track
seeds, etc. Any ideas or helpful tips on barcoding?
Thanks,
