Remote Control of Clinical Labs
June 30, 2015 | Terry Sharrer
Distance monitoring through a communications app and remote controls may ultimately become a highly useful automation tool for biorepositories (centralized or distributed), but in the meantime, if offers clinical pathology labs a new level of efficiency. “One recent example is Beckman Coulter’s MobileFuge app for its Optima XPN and Avanti JXN centrifuges that allows users to keep an eye on the status of up to 16 centrifuges from anywhere with an Internet connection. Once their centrifuges are configured so that they are always connected to a lab’s IT network, users can monitor and modify speed, run time, and temperature. MobileFuge also enables users to monitor diagnostic information.” MORE
