A total systems approach to laboratory automation
IIII IIIII introduced. It might even be necessary to develop a type of mobile laboratory especially designed for use in developing countries, in which all basic laboratory tests could be carried out. This need not be more complex than a simple bench supplied complete with all necessary equipment. The experience gathered during the development of the PotLab and MonA concepts should be useful for...

متن کامل[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...
