Equipment Maintenance Well functioning equipment is essential for the smooth running of a laboratory. Staff must be familiar with basic maintenance procedures, such as, changing the bulb of a microscope, cleaning of a centrifuge or changing a fuse of a photometre. In addition, regular preventive maintenance of laboratory equipment by a biomedical instrument technician is required to prolong the life of costly equipment. Many countries have established biomedical equipment maintenance centres, but regular visits to PHC units are often poorly organised. Look out here for more information soon! |

Our mission is to serve as a global resource and information exchange forum in support of laboratory services in resource-poor countries and thereby contribute to sustainable quality improvement in this field! |
