Insights to elevate efficiency

Transform your laboratory with the Molecular Work Area

In today’s demanding healthcare environment, managing a laboratory can be a balancing act between controlling costs and ensuring the on-time delivery of quality results. Through the integration of automation solutions, laboratories can work to alleviate the pressure from these daily challenges to focus their efforts on eliminating redundant and non–value-adding tasks.

The impact of automation on molecular workflows

Automation provides several advantages compared with manual processing. One of the most significant benefits is reducing the window in which human error can occur. For example, a traditional molecular workflow for HPV testing with SurePathTM requires 43 manual steps. While there may exist some analytical automation, the setup is performed manually. Manual touchpoints increase the risk of cross- contamination. By increasing the level of automation within a workflow, laboratories can significantly reduce this risk.

Today, completely automated laboratory systems ensure efficiency and quality throughout processing. Load-and-go samples, hands-free sample transfers, and high work-away times allow technicians to spend more time on other value-adding tasks.
