The Bio Safety Level -3 bio-containment lab is spread across 13000 sq ft

Suburban Diagnostics has opened a 13000 sq ft reference laboratory in Vidya Vihar, Mumbai. The ultra-modern laboratory offers an extensive test menu with the use of the latest technology in testing and process automation for precise and timely diagnostics.

 

The lab is also the first private lab in West India to have built its mycobacteriology, mycology, and molecular biology departments within a separate Bio Safety Level -3 (BSL3) bio-containment lab thereby reducing any potential exposure to both the lab personnel and to those outside the lab by the accidental release of any bio-risk material into the environment. The lab has a test menu of 2800.

 

Brig Dr Arvind Lal, Chairman, Dr Lal PathLabs said, “The new reference lab provides a wide array of super-specialised, specialised and routine tests for meeting all their diagnostic needs.” 

 

Dr Om Manchanda, MD, Lal PathLabs said, “We will be able to provide high-quality services to a large set of practising doctors and patients. The new reference lab will provide a great impetus to our growth in Mumbai, Maharashtra, and Western Region.”

 

Dr Sanjay Arora, Chairman, Suburban Diagnostics & Group Medical Director, Dr Lal Pathlabs, said, “With the launch of the Reference Laboratory, we are fulfilling our promise to provide access to high-end super-specialized tests to the medical fraternity of Mumbai, Maharashtra and Western India. The reference laboratory leverages the power of technology at every level. It uses automation in accession, sample integrity check, quality control, sample tracking, reporting, and report delivery. AI-empowered algorithms and digital microscopy are used to aid pathologists.”
