How to Improve Workflow Efficiency with Lab Automation
Lately I’ve been feeling like our lab spends more time setting up than actually doing experiments. We still prep reagents by hand, label everything manually, and log results on paper — no joke. I know automation can help, but the options out there are overwhelming. Anyone here actually transitioned to a semi-automated setup and felt a real difference in workflow?

Yeah, we switched over last year after dealing with constant delays and human errors (especially during sample prep). I was skeptical at first, but once we started using a few automated liquid handlers and barcode scanners, things got smoother fast. We sourced a lot of our stuff through this site with a wide selection of https://gentaur.co.uk/laboratory-equipment/ — even found a few things we didn’t know we needed.

Reading through these kinds of discussions makes me appreciate how varied lab setups can be. Some places are almost futuristic, others still stuck in the ‘90s. It’s wild how tech moves so fast and some teams are barely catching up while others are deep into AI-driven diagnostics. I guess it’s all about budget, mindset, and management priorities at the end of the day.
