__________________________

$\bf\underline\mathcal\blue{Laboratory :}$

A room or building with scientific equipment for doing scientific tests or for teaching science, or a place where chemicals or medicines are produced:

• research laboratories

• a computer laboratory

• Laboratory tests suggest that the new drug may be used to treat cancer.

$\bf\underline\mathcal\blue{Types\: of\: Laboratory :}$

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Analytical\: and\: Quality\: Laboratories :}$

• In analytical and quality laboratories products and materials are tested against conformity to specifications and the absence of impurities.

• These laboratories form an essential component within the production and the supply chain.

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Biosafety\: Laboratories :}$

• The purpose of biosafety laboratories and suites is the containment of potentially harmful biological agents.

• The containment is achieved through a thoughtful combination of methods, facilities and equipment.

• The levels of containment go from BSL1 to the highest level of BSL4.

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Cleanrooms :}$

• In cleanrooms the number of dust particles permitted per volume of air defines the classification of the clean room.

• All aspects of the people and materials flows, the mechanical systems and the room finishes are to be consistent with each other.

• The design and engineering needs to follow either “ISO 14644-1” – “FED STD 209E” – “BS 5295” or “GMP EU” classification.

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Clinical\: and\: Medical\: Laboratories :}$

• These laboratories are equipped for diagnostic tests on tissue, blood and other patient samples.

• They can be subdivided into various processes such as pathology, serology, histology, virology, bacteriology and molecular biology with PCR-technologies.

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Incubator\: Laboratory :}$

• Laboratories conducting microbiological, and cell or tissue culture work require incubators to protect these cultures from the environment.

• Parameters such as temperature, humidity, and O2 and CO2 levels need to be controlled.

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Production\: Laboratories :}$

• Pilot production or small volume laboratories as a scale-up between R&D and commercial production, or for the production for clinical trials, form a category on their own.

• Such laboratories can be found in the pharmaceutical, biotech, and the science and technology sectors.

• Quite often special attention needs to be given towards containment and air quality.

$\bf\underline\mathcal{Research\: and\: Development\: Laboratories :}$

• This category covers a broad spectrum of laboratories with various risk qualifications and containment requirements such as: PBOEL, Bio Safety Laboratories, laboratories with radio-active risks etc.

• Also specialized laboratories for seed, crop, material, and life sciences research are part of this category.
