Lab Data Provenance: Sample Tracking for Synthetic Biology

Wed, 27 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Synthetic biology experiments do not fail only at the bench. They can fail later, when a team looks back at a promising result and cannot prove which sample produced it, which construct version was present, which plate map was used, which instrument file belongs to the run, or which small handling change separated one condition from another. The biology may have answered a useful question, but the lab record no longer knows exactly what the question was.
