The Promega iPad App has recently been updated to include a new interactive feature called Quick Protocols. These protocols offer scientists the a choice of over 70 protocols for use in interactive format at the lab bench. Using this feature, you can run protocols, add notes, and activate timers as needed. You can also add commonly accessed protocols to a Favorites list, view a time-stamped protocol you’ve completed, e-mail a completed protocol with notes or send it to a dropbox account.
The goal of providing protocols for iPad is to make it easy to access and use a variety of protocols at the lab bench, and to enable users to annotate, share and save protocols for future use.
Here is a quick overview of how it all works:
Select Quick Protocols
Select a Protocol from the Promega Protocols Menu
View a Flow Chart of yur Selected Protocol
Add Notes
Set Timers as Needed
Share a pdf via Email or Dropbox
Quick Protocols was developed by our awesome co-workers Tricia, Maciek and David, and is part of the Promega App for iPad®, available on the AppStore. Try it out and let us know if you have suggestions for additional features and protocols we should consider including in future versions.
