WASP and A55 Anaerobic Workstation installed at Royal Blackburn Hospital

Royal Blackburn Hospital recently made some key improvements to their laboratory. The installation of both the Walk Away Specimen Processor (WASP) and the Whitley A55 Anaerobic Workstation will increase efficiency and productivity in their routine microbiology and MRSA work.

WASP is an automated specimen processing system that can be connected to a laboratory’s LIS. Previously Don Whitley Scientific has installed WASP™ systems under the guidance of Copan, the system’s manufacturer. This installation and connection to the LIS was carried out solely by Don Whitley Scientific, providing a solution in automation for this busy lab.

The department at Royal Blackburn Hospital will use the system to process MRSA samples alongside other routine microbiology applications. WASP™ and WASPLab™ represent a true modular, scalable, long-term solution for the efficient automation of specimen processing in bacteriology laboratories, allowing for: plate inoculation (streaking), gram slide preparation, enrichment broth inoculation, robotic incubation and management, Kirby-Bauer application, MALDI-TOF target plate management and plate image recording and analysis.

A Whitley A55 Workstation was also installed at the hospital. The A55  is one of the largest workstations in the DWS anaerobic range. One of the key benefits of this particular workstation is a large incubation area that accommodates up to 1,400 x 90mm Petri dishes, providing a huge working capacity under strict anaerobic conditions. The workstation also comes equipped with two airlocks. Each airlock allows 40 x 90mm Petri dishes to be introduced and withdrawn at either end of the workstation offering maximum flexibility and improving the workflow in a laboratory. Both airlocks can be operated at the same time. The A55 replaces older Whitley Workstations used by the lab and should improve efficiency and increase the lab’s potential. The WASP™ and Whitley A55 will both provide substantial benefit to work being undertaken at Royal Blackburn Hospital.

Don Whitley Scientific has been manufacturing anaerobic workstations for decades whilst providing excellent service and support for our customers. For the past few years we have been installing WASP™ and WASPLab™  units in locations around the UK.
