Standardization and quality control in centrifuges in the urinalysis area

Abstract

Urological examinations date their application from the time of the Egyptian empire, where urine was used to identify diseases in the bodies, with the passage of time and hand in hand with technology, urinalysis continues to be important in the detection of pathologies, with changes in its analysis methodology. Where biomedical equipment is used, such as the centrifuge, which uses a motor to subject the samples to high speeds, and manage to separate their components. The present work compiles the instructions and recommendations for the use, maintenance and control of the centrifuge equipment, in order to prevent wear, accidents or total damage to the equipment, these guidelines will avoid incurring unnecessary expenses for the laboratory and minimize errors. In the treatment of the sample prior to its analysis. By taking into account and respecting quality standards, the efficiency and reliability of the processes are increased, improving the identification of health problems, for the prevention and treatment of diseases.)
