Human medicine laboratories

Human medical laboratories are specialized facilities that perform diagnostic analyses of patient samples to detect and monitor diseases and guide therapies. Current challenges include ensuring high quality standards according to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and adapting to technological advances. Trends such as the digitalization of laboratory processes, automation, and the integration of artificial intelligence are shaping the industry. These developments aim to increase efficiency, minimize error rates, and enable more precise diagnoses.

In the lab, a bio-engineered pathogen identification device significantly reduces the amount of host DNA to allow the PCR primer to bind only to microbial sequences. At the end of the process, the success of the DNA reduction is measured by the sample weight. The weight is also a parameter to validate the device. A precision balance is used for this process

When working with in vitro tissue samples, precise positioning under a microscope is essential. Due to the specimen’s three-dimensional structure, it is crucial to use a system that provides a clear spatial impression. This enables accurate handling and placement during preparation.
