Designing laboratories of molecular diagnostics

Design of molecular diagnostics laboratories

A molecular diagnostics laboratory is a specific type of medical institution, the task of which is to detect various genetic or infectious diseases in people. This is done by analyzing DNA, RNA or other molecular structures. This type of diagnostic research is considered the basis of personalized medicine. It allows you to understand the genes of a specific person. As a result, it is possible to identify mutations associated with blood cancer and various hematological diseases, understand molecular changes that indicate the development of cancer, and diagnose diseases such as hepatitis, toxoplasmosis, HIV and others with high accuracy. The high accuracy and efficiency of molecular diagnostics makes laboratories very popular and determines the strictest requirements for their organization.

Design features of molecular diagnostics laboratories

Competent design of this type of laboratory requires not only knowledge in the field of design, but also an understanding of the specifics of molecular diagnostics. In addition, the design engineer must be familiar with the generally accepted norms and standards used in the creation of these laboratories.

Molecular diagnostics laboratories are subject to the most stringent requirements regarding the qualifications of personnel, equipment and research methods, accreditation and certification, the level of security and protection, as well as the possibility of regular updates.

In this regard, in the process of designing a molecular diagnostics laboratory, specialists need to consider the following important aspects:

• Sterility and cleanliness of the premises. This is important to prevent contamination of any samples, germs and infections, and cross-contamination. Insufficient sterility can cause errors in diagnostic results. In this regard, designers need to plan systems for disinfection, ventilation, waste disposal, etc.
• Organization of space. It is important to ensure the rational use of space in order to achieve the efficiency of all work processes. This applies to the ratio of the area to the equipment to be installed and other aspects.
• Security level. For a molecular diagnostics laboratory, compliance with safety standards is the most important aspect. These include rules for handling materials and tools, which means that it is important to create optimal conditions for their storage and use during design.
• Modern equipment. In molecular diagnostics laboratories, advanced equipment is installed, which requires compliance with certain conditions. It is important to organize free access to equipment for work and maintenance and to create the necessary conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.).

No less important is the organization of an information system that will allow you to record and process data, analyze results, track samples, generate reports, etc. Adherence to all standards and regulations applicable to molecular diagnostics laboratories must also be taken into account during the design of the facility.

Where to order a molecular diagnostics laboratory project

Only experienced design engineers can create a high-quality project of a molecular diagnostics laboratory. The “Technology Project Group” company is a team of professionals who have experience not only in design, but also in the field of working with medical institutions. The company has more than 150 successful projects under its belt.

Our design engineers will create a design for a molecular diagnostics laboratory taking into account all the client’s requirements, available resources, budget, as well as norms and standards that apply to such institutions. Employees of “Technology Project Group” regularly upgrade their skills by undergoing training and borrowing best practices in EU countries in order to offer customers only innovative and high-tech solutions. We don’t use templates and always take a comprehensive design approach.
