Plant tissue culture workflow software that keeps the live batch record intact

This workflow page focuses on the operating screens that answer where a batch lives, what changed, and what the lab should do next.

Why it matters

The goal is not another disconnected queue. Hoodflow keeps the batch record, shelf placement, overdue pressure, and assignment board connected so supervisors and technicians can work from one operating picture.

Rack and section placement stay visible at a glance
Useful for checking crowded shelves and empty capacity
Supports add, remove, move, acclimate, sell, postpone, and mark-subcultured actions

Lab Layout

See where batches live across the lab

A visual rack-and-section layout shows where material sits, where alerts are concentrated, and what needs attention first.

Shelf Section Detail

In-depth details give a closer look at shelf sections.

A detailed breakdown helps you understand exactly where vessels are, recent activity, and overdue batches.

Lab Layout

See where batches live across the lab

Shelf context is operational context. The layout view makes it easier to see where batches actually live before technicians decide what to move, review, or touch next.

Rack and section placement stay visible at a glance
Shelf alerts surface pressure areas without scanning a spreadsheet
Lab layout stays tied to the same batch and vessel record

Shelf Section Detail

In-depth details give a closer look at shelf sections.

Layout visibility is more useful when teams can move from a broad map into a tighter shelf-level view without losing the same inventory context.

Useful for checking crowded shelves and empty capacity
Keeps physical placement tied to the living batch record
Makes room-level bottlenecks easier to spot before the next move

Batch Tracker

Work directly from the live batch record

The core record should answer what the batch is, where it lives, what changed, and what happens next without re-keying the same context in multiple places.

Supports add, remove, move, acclimate, sell, postpone, and mark-subcultured actions
Combines batch-level visibility with optional unique vessel detail
Keeps traceability attached as the batch moves through the lab

Alarm Window

Surface overdue work before it gets buried

When timing slips, the system should show operators exactly what needs attention instead of relying on memory or a separate reminder sheet.

Highlights time-sensitive work in one queue
Makes overdue pressure visible without opening each record
Helps supervisors review aging load before the day starts

All Plants

See all active plant material in one view

Teams need both the detailed batch record and the high-level inventory picture. The all-plants view supports the broader scan.

Useful for inventory review and planning conversations
Lets supervisors scan active material quickly
Complements the more detailed batch and layout screens

Batch Assignment Board

See which batches need action next

The queue should reflect live subculture pressure, not a morning rebuild. The board view makes it easier to claim work, see what is blocked, and move batches through the day.

Ready, in-progress, and done states stay visible together
Batches can be claimed and reassigned from the same screen
Technicians can move straight into the batch tracker from the queue
