New Segregation Software a Success for Leeds WASPLab

For several years, Don Whitley Scientific have been installing WASP and WASPLab units in locations around the UK. Locations that include Leeds General Infirmary, PHE Public Health Laboratory in Manchester and Blackburn Royal Hospital. Though the set-up and configuration of the systems differ (due to the modularity of WASP and WASPLab), all installations have provided an increase in efficiency and productivity in routine microbiology work. The WASPLab laboratory at Leeds have recently started using new segregation software, offering increased efficiency.

WASPLab is the sophisticated, barcode-driven, microbiology specimen processor and work-up system, moving samples from front end processing to full specimen management, automated incubation and digital microbiology. It has been long thought that bacteriology was the last bastion of traditional manual techniques but the way in which plates are read and interpreted changes dramatically with the use of WASP and WASPLab.

 

New Segregation Software

The WASPLab at Leeds General Infirmary was the first WASPLab Don Whitley Scientific and manufacturer Copan installed in the UK. The WASPLab at Leeds is one of the largest configurations of the system in the UK and they continue to make further improvements, such as new segregation software to separate negative MRSA results from the positive samples (Blackburn Royal Hospital will also be processing MRSA samples). The impressive software allows the laboratory worker to report 300 negative samples within a minute and a half, offering incredible levels of efficiency.

Copan continue to provide automated solutions for laboratories around the world. Don Whitley Scientific are proud to work with Copan, installing WASP and WASPLab systems in the UK.
