Microbiology lab automation arrives.
e d u c a t i o n a dvances in medicine have challenged labs to push the limits on diagnostics, so the industry has responded with automated solutions designed to improve efficiency, consistency , and turnaround times. Leaders in the field of in vitro diagnostics stepped up to create solutions for every stage in the laboratory process — pre-analytic, analytic, and informatics — with even more a...
متن کاملPaving the Road to Business Process Automation
Event-driven Process Chains (EPCs) have been helped to achieve an important role in business process modeling by the commercial success of SAP and ARIS. Both users and IT experts may describe the process to be modelled from their individual perspectives. Event-driven Process Chains, therefore, create a common platform for communication and the analysis of ideas beyond the boundaries of both app...
متن کاملCarbohydrate structure: the rocky road to automation.
With the introduction of intuitive graphical software, structural biologists who are not experts in crystallography are now able to build complete protein or nucleic acid models rapidly. In contrast, carbohydrates are in a wholly different situation: scant automation exists, with manual building attempts being sometimes toppled by incorrect dictionaries or refinement problems. Sugars are the mo...
متن کامل1 Advanced Total Lab Automation System ( ATLAS )
In modern analytical chemistry not only do new measurement principles have to be investigated but newly found techniques also need to be developed into integrated and more and more automated analytical solutions. Exploring new techniques in research and development (R&D) environments mostly means designing different setups incorporating a huge variety of different equipment. Whether this hardwa...
متن کاملOn the road to automation, proceed with caution.
I an old analogy, but an apt one: Automating a laboratory without first streamlining its processes is like paving a cowpath. Ignore that maxim, and your lab might end up meandering along a back road while others are zipping down the freeway. “The best way to start is to get rid of the inefficiencies. That can be accomplished without starting on automation,” points out Peter Bambic, Ortho-Clinic...
