. Introduction
The automated analyzers in clinical laboratories
Nowadays, the overwhelming majority of laboratory results in clinical laboratories is being
generated by automated analyzers. Modern automated analyzers are highly sophisticated
instruments which can produce a tremendous number of laboratory results in a very short
time. This is achieved thanks to the integration of technologies from three different scientific
fields: analytical chemistry, computer science and robotics. The combination of these
technologies substitutes a huge number of glassware equipment and tedious, repetitive
laboratory work. As a matter of fact, the laboratory routine work has diminished
significantly. Today laboratory personnel’s duties have been shifted from manual work to
the maintenance of the equipment, internal and external quality control, instrument
calibration and data management of the generated results.
