Pooling of Samples

Functional Questions and Answers
#1

Hello,

Is there a functionality within senate that allows for the pooling of Samples. E.g. for testing of large samples taking within a community for ten samples to pooled into a single test and run. If the result is negative then all the samples in the pool are declared negative. Else the positive sample is unpooled and then individually run.

Can this be achieved or has anyone implemented something similar.

Thanks in advance.

@ Hi @yofori,

I think SENAITE does not have such functionality, but worksheets (https://www.senaite.com/docs/worksheet-basics) would be a good starting point to achieve this, in my opinion.

Best regards,

@yofori, I am also interested in pooling of samples. Did you end up developing this capability?
