Chemical Inventory

Connect chemicals, containers, structures, safety data, and experiments

Overview

Labii Chemical Inventory brings chemical information, molecular structures, batches, containers, storage locations, and safety documentation into one connected system. AI helps populate chemical details, structure search helps researchers find relevant compounds, and links to the Electronic Lab Notebook and Chemical Synthesis connect every container to the experiments that use it.

Keep Every Chemical's Identity in One Searchable Record

Centralize chemical names, synonyms, CAS Registry Numbers, molecular formulas, molecular weights, and structures in consistent records. Researchers can organize, search, and open the information they need instead of hunting through spreadsheets and shared drives. Configurable properties and metadata let each laboratory capture the additional details its work requires.

Register Chemicals Faster with AI

Start from a chemical name and let AI help populate synonyms, CAS Registry Numbers, molecular formulas, molecular weights, and chemical structures. Less manual typing makes chemical registration quicker and reduces transcription work. Researchers review each AI-generated value and can correct it before the record is saved.

Trace Every Container Back to Its Batch and Chemical

Track batch numbers, container identifiers, quantities, and other inventory details for each chemical you hold. Every container stays linked to its batch, and every batch stays linked to its chemical record. These relationships show what is on hand and make it simple to trace any container back to its source.

Know Exactly Where Every Chemical Is Stored

Record the physical location of chemicals and containers across buildings, rooms, cabinets, refrigerators, freezers, and shelves. A location hierarchy that mirrors your laboratory makes inventory easier to organize. Researchers find chemicals faster, and lab managers can see what is stored where.

Keep Safety Data Sheets with the Chemicals They Describe

Record hazard and safety information for each chemical and store its Safety Data Sheets directly with the chemical record. Associating documentation with the chemical removes the need to search separate folders or binders. Researchers can review relevant hazards and SDS details before they handle a chemical.

Draw and Edit Structures Inside the Chemical Record

View each chemical's molecular structure directly in its record, and draw or modify structures with an integrated editor. The editor uses the same chemical structure widgets available across Labii, so structure work stays inside the inventory application. Researchers can update structures without exporting files or switching tools.

Find Compounds by Structure, Not Just by Name

Search the inventory with a molecular structure instead of relying only on names or identifiers. Substructure search returns chemicals that contain a specified fragment, while similarity search finds compounds with related structures. Researchers can discover relevant compounds already on hand before ordering or preparing new material.

Connect Inventory to Experiments and Synthesis

Chemical Inventory works with Labii Electronic Lab Notebook and Chemical Synthesis, so chemicals, batches, and containers can be linked to experiment records and synthesis reactions. Usage and consumption recorded during experiments stay tied to the containers they came from. The result is a traceable path from a container on the shelf to the experiments and syntheses that used it.

Shape Chemical Inventory Around Your Laboratory

Configure tables, columns, relationships, forms, dashboards, and workflows to match how your laboratory manages chemicals. Because Chemical Inventory is part of Labii's all-in-one laboratory informatics platform, chemical records can connect with notebooks, samples, projects, and other Labii applications. Teams can adapt the system as requirements change instead of maintaining a separate inventory tool.

Commercial Chemical Inventory Software Comparison

Chemical inventory systems differ in their documented focus, chemical and structure data, container and location tracking, safety documentation, and connections to research workflows. This comparison highlights Labii's distinguishing ability to configure tables, fields, relationships, dashboards, forms, and workflows around an organization's requirements.
