General chemistry ELNs can typically be used for analytical chemistry data and may be well suited to your research topic. However, there are also specialised tools that are tailored to the needs of analytical chemists. These tools often include features for managing instrument data, processing raw data files and visualising results. They may also include tools for chemometric analysis.

To meet the requirements for FAIR data management, electronic lab notebooks (ELNs) are particularly useful as they can take over many documentation tasks for researchers. The [ELN-Finder](https://eln-finder.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de/search?f.K03=Pharmacy,equals&spc.page=1) offers a selection of pharmacy-specific ELNs. How to choose the right ELN for the research group can be read [here](https://knowledgebase.nfdi4chem.de/knowledge_base/docs/choose_eln/).

An [electronic lab notebooks (ELN)](/docs/eln) helps in the day-to-day planning and structured documentation of experiments, while some also assist in data workflow management. For disciplines with diverse research, ELNs must be flexible and customizable. Certain universities may have a central option, while each research group may chose what best fits their needs and resources if they are able to host or procure their own solution. The [ELN-Finder](https://eln-finder.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de/search?f.K03=Pharmacy,equals&spc.page=1) lists many options and the article on [choosing an ELN](/docs/choose_eln) provides further assistance:

If you want your data to comply with the [FAIR principles](/docs/fair/) it can be very tedious and extremely time consuming if you try to apply the FAIR principles to your data retrospectively if your existing workflows involve a large degree of analogue documentation (e.g. paper lab notebooks). The reality is that you need tools to take care of certain aspects of the FAIR principles automatically so you don’t have to apply them manually each time. [Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELNs)](/docs/eln/) are very powerful tools that can help you with this. Depending on what ELN you use, the [metadata](/docs/metadata/) can be automatically assigned in both human and [machine-readable formats](/docs/format_standards/). Furthermore, some ELNs can automatically generate interoperable [open file formats](/docs/format_standards/#format-standards-in-chemistry) for your analytical data. Choosing the right ELN can be challenging and this process should be thought about and carried out carefully. You can find out more on [how to choose the right ELN here](/docs/choose_eln/):
