Zusammenfassung:The clinical and analytical laboratory has been at the forefront of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. This is where testing is carried out, guiding hospitalization and providing information on the spread of the disease. It is also central to the development of new medicines and the vaccines that are still being tested. Laboratories make extensive use of robotics and automation to safely improve quality and productivity at an acceptable cost.
