Research Project Tuberculosis

Improve sample preparation and precision of proficiency test samples by demonstrating and documenting commutability.

Project cerebrospinal fluid diagnostics

In CSF diagnostics, the nonlinear relationships of protein analytics do not allow simple manual evaluation and make it difficult to accept the mathematically correct interpretations. This can only be solved by appropriate software. The functional combination of all individual data of a patient into disease-typical interpretation patterns also depends on this.
