NAA-LIMS: a laboratory information management system for neutron activation analysis at the Peruvian institute of nuclear energy

This work presents a modular laboratory information management system (LIMS) developed at the Peruvian Institute of Nuclear Energy for neutron activation analysis using the k₀ method. The LIMS is based on Visual Studio, WinForms, the.NET Framework, and C#. It digitizes processes and ensures metrological traceability while facilitating sample management, spectral processing, and neutron flux characterization. Data is stored securely in the cloud to allow instant and secure access by multiple users. Its innovation lies in the personalized and modular design, which optimizes laboratory efficiency without requiring significant adjustments to existing procedures. In addition, it was designed for it to be adaptable for use by other research organizations.
