Consortium on Automated Analytical Laboratory Systems (CAALS)

USA Industry and government both depend heavily on analytical laboratory measurements. Although these measurements provide critical feedback in many situations , such as product quality assurance, acceptance testing, and regulatory compliance, they are generally viewed with mixed feelings. On the positive side, industry recognizes that improvements in product and process capability often depend...

Pittcon 1992 — Abstracts

The Consortium on Automated Analytical Laboratory Systems (CAALS) has been formed with interested parties from the private sector and other government agencies at NIST to foster the creation of automated chemical analysis systems that will improve the quality of analytical data, facilitate the entire analytical process, and promote the standardization and transfer of analytical methods, while p...

Comparison of results for 13 clinical laboratory determinations with three automated analytical systems.

We evaluated the Abbott Bichromatic Analyzer-100 (ABA-100) for use in the routine clinical chemistry laboratory by examining 13 different determinations that can be performed on the instrument. Results with the Du Pont "aca" and Technicon continuous-flow systems were compared to the ABA-100 in terms of upper limits of linearity, inter-run coefficient of variation, and results for samples from p...

The maintenance of analytical quality in the automated laboratory.

The workload of thc clinical chemistry laboratory doubles every 4 or 5 years. This increase occurs in teaching and non-teaching hospital laboratories in this country and in many other countries abroad. Such increases have forced new approaches in laboratory techniques and laboratory organization. In the Department of Biochemistry at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, work study of the sy...
