Laboratory Equipment for Hospital -2

In continuous flow analysis (CFA) a continuous stream of material is divided by air bubbles into discrete segments in which chemical reactions occur. The continuous stream of liquid samples and reagents are combined and transported in tubing and mixing coils. Biosensors can be defined as analytical devices which include a combination of biological detecting elements like sensor system and a transducer. The Clinical Biochemistry Analyzer is an instrument that uses the pale yellow supernatant portion (serum) of centrifuged blood sample or a urine sample and induces reactions using reagents to measure various components such as sugar cholesterol protein enzyme etc. A centrifuge is a laboratory device that is used for the separation of fluids gas or liquid based on density. Separation is achieved by spinning a vessel containing material at high speed; the centrifugal force pushes heavier materials to the outside of the vessel. The electrolyte analyzer has different electrodes specific for different ions of interest. Electrolyte analyzers measure electrolyte levels in the human body to detect metabolic imbalances. Immunoassays can be used to test for the presence of a specific antibody or a specific antigen in blood or other fluids.
