[Automation in the clinical microbiology laboratory].
Imagine a clinical microbiology laboratory where a patient's specimens are placed on a conveyor belt and sent on an automation line for processing and plating. Technologists need only log onto a computer to visualize the images of a culture and send to a mass spectrometer for identification. Once a pathogen is identified, the system knows to send the colony for susceptibility testing. This is t...

متن کاملAutomation in the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory
The clinical microbiology laboratory has historically been considered “low-tech,” especially when compared to the clinical chemistry laboratory. However, systems are emerging for the clinical microbiology laboratory with the potential to automate almost all areas of testing, including inoculation of primary culture plates, detection of growth on culture media, identification of microorganisms, ...
متن کاملMethodology and subspecialty consolidation in the clinical laboratory.
The design of instruments as automated workstations for the clinical laboratory has evolved steadily over the last two decades. The grouping of assays into clinical chemistry disciplines has been largely influenced by the instrumentation available, e.g., multicomponent chemistry analyzers and specialty analyzers, including analyte-specific analyzers, blood gas analyzers, nephelometers, instrume...
متن کاملEnzymatic Determination Of Glycerol Contents In Biological Samples Using The Biomek 4000 Laboratory Automation Workstation
Glycerol is an important platform chemical and also serves as feedstock for a broad range of bioprocesses. Yeast strains are known to produce glycerol under certain conditions. We intended to identify yeast strains with improved capacity to produce glycerol from renewable feedstocks. As even small improvements in glycerol formation have a strong commercial impact, we took special care of precis...
