Measurement of Lipase and Amylase can help to evaluate patients' pancreatic function and gastrointestinal health.

In a climate change environment, every harvest presents a new challenge for winemakers. One of their main concerns is achieving the desired equilibrium of sugars and acids while maximizing the phenolic potential in the grapes.

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin produced by certain fungi from various genus and species that occur in nature. These fungi can develop their activity in crops such as cereals, coffee, or vineyards under ideal conditions of moisture and temperature.

When it comes to assessing kidney function, measuring the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) accurately is essential. At the heart of this measurement lies serum creatinine — but not all creatinine assays are created equal. If your lab is still using a non-compensated Jaffé method, it's time to rethink your approach.

In the field of clinical human and veterinary analysis, biochemistry plays a key role in diagnosing diseases and monitoring the state of health of a patient. But what exactly do we mean by a biochemistry analytical system?

The incoming inspection of key components used in the manufacturing of our analysers and devices is essential to ensure their compliance and functionality before they are used in Production. The Metrology team has the personnel and measuring instruments necessary to carry out this inspection process.

The pre-analytical phase encompasses all steps from the generation of the analysis request to the measurement of the biological magnitude. It includes processes both outside and inside the clinical laboratory. According to several studies, the highest percentage of errors in the clinical laboratory, around 60%, occurs in this phase. Therefore, taking care of it is essential to improve the quality of analyses and patient safety. Let's look at its different steps.

A biochemistry analyser is an essential instrument for clinical laboratories that automates the process of analysing biological samples, such as blood or urine. This process includes reagent and sample addition, mixing, thermal control, absorbance measurement of the reaction produced, calculation of the analyte concentration, and result display.
