Pure Water for the Modern Clinical Laboratory
contributed by Elga Veolia |
Summary
Clinical grade water is clearly essential in a clinical laboratory and the trend is certainly towards higher purity requirements to meet the range of analyses carried out. Poor water quality not only affects the tests themselves directly but also impacts on all aspects of analyzer operation. Good water purification design, especially providing recirculation through the key purification technologies, is the key to effective and long-term bacterial control, which is the most challenging aspect of water purification. This approach, combined with duplex operation and good support will provide the water needed.
