Optimising assay sequence on automated coagulation instrumentation.
An embedded knowledge-based system has been developed to determine the optimum sequence for assays performed on a random access coagulation analyser. This knowledge base is in the form of a set of rules describing penalties associated with certain sequences of assays. The optimisation of assay sequences increases throughput and reduces consumption of cleaning solutions and generation of waste. A flexible design also facilitates updates to the knowledge base as assays are modified and added in the future.
