subject: Utilities & Features Of Bio Clinical Laboratories [print this page] In todays evolving medical landscape bio clinical laboratories have a crucial role to play in drug development and new treatment discovery. They are full service clinical laboratories having a vast experience in diagnostic medicine and other types of research activities. Bio clinical laboratories are known for their expert physicians and advanced services.
Technically, most bio-clinical laboratories provide a diverse range of medical determinations, such as whether a patient requires generic electrolyte analysis or advanced treatments for instance hormone or serological quantification. Innovative technology such as DNA and PCA helps a bio clinical laboratory to Row in terms of testing practices for taking better care of patients. Bio clinical laboratories are known for their professional excellence and high treatment modalities. For activities such as reporting and pick-up of specimens they have their own technicians, pathologists, technologists and other assistants.
Indian clinical research organizations today own their own bio clinical laboratory that forms the nucleus of multiple clinical studies certified by CAP and NABL. The laboratory proactively takes part in several external proficiency testing programs with national and global labs to maintain high standards of quality control. In addition to that, a bio clinical laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art architecture and advanced medical devices and logistics, technologies that include the as a Laboratory Information Management System that helps in online data transfer ensuring a much lesser turn around time with excellent quality and consistency. This apart, bio clinical laboratories have the capacity to support a wide range of investigations that includes the following:
* Hematology
* Urine Analysis
* Coagulation Studies
* Biochemistry
* Clinical Pathology
* Endocrinology
* Serology
* Inflammatory/Immune markers
* Infectious Disease Markers
* Therapeutic Drug Monitoring
* Tumor Markers
* Lipid Profile
* Liver Function Test
* Anemia Profile
* Renal Profile
* Diabetic Profile
* Biomarkers
* Capabilities for other tests
Bio clinical laboratories also assist in medical studies such as Phase 1 Studies that are mostly supported by the clinical trials. They comprise the components listed below:-
* First in Human
* Multiple Ascending Dose Studies
* Single Ascending Dose Studies
* Dose Escalating Study
* New Chemical Entities
Therefore, a bio clinical laboratory forms the base for all medical studies, trials, drug development, clinical researches and disease treatment that is helping the medical field to expand and contribute to overall health and wellness of people.
