Advanced Instruments has been delivering innovation to hospital laboratories for nearly 70 years. Building innovative solutions to common laboratory challenges has been Advanced Instruments’ mission since 1955, a time when electronic automation was just beginning to be applied to laboratory methods. Throughout its 70-year history, Advanced Instruments’ osmometers have helped global clinical laboratories revolutionise workflow efficiency on the chemistry bench. Over the last two decades, this mission has expanded to microbiology, haematology, and beyond. The company acquired Mart Microbiology in 2007, marking the entrance onto the
microbiology bench with the anaerobic jar system, Anoxomat. Most recently, in 2022, Advanced Instruments joined forces with Artel to add accurate, precise, and easy-to- use verification and calibration systems to its portfolio.
