Overview
The TiCi Technologies - Tissue Culture Management System (TCMS) is a complete batch-traceability platform built for plant tissue culture laboratories, commercial propagation facilities, and biotechnology operations. It follows every batch through its entire life — from mother culture and reculture, through multiplication, to sale — with a single, unbroken record of what happened, when, and who did it.
What sets this system apart is its dual QR verification technology: every batch carries two independent QR codes — one customers can scan to instantly verify a product's authenticity, and one staff use internally, after logging in, to update the batch's real status on the spot (contamination, sale, reculture, gallery allocation, or client project) directly from the lab floor or delivery point. No other system in our product line offers this level of built-in, customer-facing authenticity verification paired with real-time internal stock control.
Every screen is fully responsive — the same portal works on a lab desktop, a tablet at the bench, or a phone scanning a QR code in the field — and every list of records loads in fast, paginated pages rather than dumping everything at once, so the system stays quick even with thousands of batches on record. Built and proven in TiCi NatureLab's own daily lab operations before being offered as a product.
Key Features
Dual QR Code Verification — every batch gets two independent, cryptographically separate QR codes: a public one for customer authenticity checks, and a secure staff-only one for internal actions
Five One-Tap Internal Actions — mark a batch Contaminated, Sold, sent for Reculture, allocated to Gallery, or reserved for a Client Project, straight from a QR scan
Full Batch Lifecycle Tracking — mother culture → reculture → multiplication → selling → sold, with a complete, time-stamped movement history per batch
Production Planning — set targets per plant and lab, track progress, and move finished stock straight into the selling pipeline
Live Stock Dashboard — every active batch shown with its age and an automatic recommendation on when it's ready to move to the next stage
Selling & Reservation Management — reserve stock for a buyer, record partial or full sales with pricing and buyer details, all reconciled automatically against inventory
Daily Activity Logging — end-of-day entry screens for lab staff to record growth, contamination, and mortality per batch, per operator
Contamination & Loss Tracking — every contamination event logged against the batch and the staff member, feeding directly into loss reports and performance analytics
QR Scan Analytics & Fraud Detection — scan trends, most-scanned products, and automatic flags for suspicious scanning patterns (with one-click QR revocation)
Assignee Performance Leaderboards — rank staff by output and contamination rate, filterable by lab, plant, and date range
7 Built-In Operational Reports — stock movement, batch traceability, batch list, media usage, production summary, sales, and loss/contamination — every one exportable to CSV
Role-Based Access Control — Admin, Lab Manager, and Technician roles, each with appropriately scoped permissions
Configurable Notifications — in-app and email alerts, independently switchable per event type, with your own SMTP server
Master Data Library — centralized management of plant varieties, growth media formulations, cultivation protocols, and lab locations
Fully Responsive, Direct-Database Architecture — works seamlessly across desktop, tablet, and mobile with no API layer in between, for a fast, secure, self-contained deployment
Complete Audit Trail — every create, update, and action across the system is logged with who, what, and when (IST timestamps throughout)
