A medical technologist working in the chemistry department will tell the doctor many things. For example, how much sugar is in the patient's blood, how much protein is in the patient's urine, or whether or not the patient has a tumor. Much of the testing in chemistry is done on automated analyzers.
How does a clinical chemistry analyzer work? Analyzers are highly automated to maximize throughput, to improve user safety from biohazards, and to diminish the risk of cross-contamination. Samples are loaded into the machine and tests are programmed by the user. A probe measures an aliquot of sample and places it into a reaction vessel.
