Title: Frederic Furrer: Innovator in Analytical Laboratory Operations
Introduction
Frederic Furrer is a notable inventor based in Horw, Switzerland. He has made significant contributions to the field of analytical laboratory operations, holding a total of nine patents. His innovative methods have enhanced the efficiency and effectiveness of laboratory processes.
Latest Patents
One of Frederic Furrer's latest patents is a method of operating an analytical laboratory. This method involves several key steps, including setting a load limit for each laboratory instrument at its maximum capacity. It also includes dispatching biological samples to laboratory instruments at a rate that does not exceed the instrument load limit. Each laboratory instrument sends test order queries to the laboratory middleware upon identifying a biological sample. In response, the middleware transmits test orders to the corresponding laboratory instruments. The laboratory middleware monitors the query rate of the instruments to determine an effective flow rate for each. If the effective flow rate of a laboratory instrument is lower than the dispatch rate, the load limit is decreased. Conversely, if the effective flow rate is greater than or equal to the dispatch rate, the load limit is increased.
