Bring structure and context to your R&D with a comprehensive registry
Model biomolecules and small molecules — no code required
Model molecules such as proteins, bio-conjugates, small molecules, and nucleotides with customized metadata fields. Configure entity and data types with a simple, point-and-click interface.
Capture and explore molecular lineage for insights
Map relationships across DNA, plasmids, cell lines, proteins, and more. Record molecular lineage and apply uniqueness rules to prevent duplicate registrations and manage resources.
Centralize and share data in context
Connect samples, notebook entries, and results directly to their corresponding molecules for a complete, 360° view. Collaborate easily with complete, high-quality, F.A.I.R. data.
Your digital catalog of every molecule you work with
Track lineage
Model rich, biological relationships for lineage tracking
- Model biomolecules, small molecules, and derivative combinations like bio-conjugates and chemically-modified biomolecules
- Map relationships between registered entities, such as parent–child relationships between entities and their batches or aliquots
- Enforce uniqueness constraints based on sequence or chemical structure composition
- Automatically detect and link reused component sequences, such as expression cassettes in plasmid sequences
Codeless configuration
Configure everything with simple, codeless tools
- Assign admin privileges to manage configurations with a simple point-and-click interface
- Configure a range of data types and entities, including DNA, RNA, chemically-modified sequences, proteins, antibodies, small molecules, bioconjugates, and animals
- Add custom fields, metadata and formulation schemas for complex mixtures and reagents
Automate and search
Work faster with automation and powerful search
- Auto-compute metadata from linked entities, including physico-chemical properties like weight, isoelectric point, Log P, TPSA
- Automatically bulk-register entities from cloning, translation, or imports via spreadsheet or APIs
- Find entities by field, ID, or aliases, and see every Notebook entry where they appear
- Search large molecules by partial sequences and search chemical structures by substructures or similarity
“Benchling gives transparency across the company. Because everything is in one place, our scientists don't have to jump from system to system. They can quickly get all the details and all the data associated with any construct or experiment.”
