Electrophoresis fast: Clinical automation

Automation in clinical microbiology.

Historically, the trend toward automation in clinical pathology laboratories has largely bypassed the clinical microbiology laboratory. In this article, we review the historical impediments to automation in the microbiology laboratory and offer insight into the reasons why we believe that we are on the cusp of a dramatic change that will sweep a wave of automation into clinical microbiology lab...

Automation in Clinical Chemistry

active in a given area will derive nothing new from the articles in his field and a person unfamiliar with the field will end up with a few new facts but a great deal of frustration. The brief space does not allow the authors to develop their ideas to any satisfying extent and as a result there are no real "perspectives" to be found in the individual contributions, while the overall collection ...

Clinical capillary electrophoresis.

Capillary electrophoresis is a relatively new analytical technique that has begun to have an impact in the clinical laboratory, both for routine analyses and for those that are more esoteric. Its potential for automated, rapid, high-efficiency separations makes it appealing as a replacement for some of the more labor-intensive assays carried out in electrophoretic gels and as a complement to co...
