A cost-effective microcomputer program was developed for managing toxicological data from necropsy samples. This system enhances data retrieval and analysis for laboratory reports and administrative needs.

Area of Science:

  • Forensic Toxicology
  • Laboratory Informatics
  • Computational Pathology

Background:

  • Effective management of toxicological data is crucial for accurate forensic investigations.
  • Existing systems for toxicological data storage and retrieval can be costly and complex.
  • Streamlining data analysis improves laboratory efficiency and reporting.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an affordable and efficient microcomputer program for toxicological data management.
  • To facilitate the storage, retrieval, and analysis of necropsy sample results.
  • To create a flexible system adaptable for various laboratory and administrative uses.

Main Methods:

  • A microcomputer program was designed using FoxBASE+, a dBase III clone.
  • The program utilizes IBM PC compatible hardware with disc drives and a printer.
