The development of private medicine has allowed people to avoid many unpleasant events associated with visiting medical institutions. If previously, in order to take the necessary test, you had to get the coveted coupon from the doctor and show up at the treatment room on the appointed day, spending time in long queues, now with the advent of clinical laboratories in Moscow. But in addition to convenience, the patient seeks to gain confidence in the accuracy of the results obtained. To choose the best private institution, we suggest that you read the reviews on our portal. They will help you learn more about the work of clinical laboratories in Moscow and, therefore, make your choice.
We ask everyone who has in one way or another encountered the work of these medical organizations to describe their impressions on the ProDoctors portal. These few lines will not take up much of your time, but will be very useful for hundreds of site visitors.
Choosing a laboratory in Moscow
More and more people today are doing tests in clinical laboratories in Moscow. This provokes an increase in the number of data from medical institutions. Some of them even have hundreds of branches outside the capital.
Modern clinical laboratories have long gone beyond just basic research. Here you can not only donate blood and biomaterials for analysis, but also receive many other services. Specialists conduct cytological, histological, immunological studies, identify the level of certain hormones in the body, conduct allergy tests, etc. Some clinical laboratories in Moscow also offer more complex procedures, such as diagnosing the liver without performing a biopsy. In addition, here you can conduct a study of the dysbiotic state of the mucous membranes.
Innovative technologies allow Moscow laboratories to conduct complex analyses. For example, here it is possible to detect the presence of hereditary diseases even in newly born babies. And of course, research is conducted to determine biological motherhood and paternity.
Many clinical laboratories in Moscow collect materials even at the patient’s home, which can be very convenient when examining older people. The system for obtaining results is no less convenient: to do this, you just need to go to your personal account on the institution’s website or check your email. Some clinics have gone even further and, in addition to conducting tests, offer consultation with specialized specialists or functional diagnostics. Here you can obtain a medical record or undergo a preventive examination.
×In addition to chemical analysis of water, we recommend doing a microbiological study of water in a partner laboratory of the Faculty of Biology of Moscow State University (without accreditation).
It is clear that the non-compliance of water with microbiological standards, as well as chemical ones, makes it unsuitable for drinking. Timely microbiological analysis will make it possible to prevent infection with water-borne intestinal infections and, in the case of individual wells, to develop measures for water purification.
Microbiological analysis of water at MSU includes determination of the total microbial number (TMC), the number of total coliform and coliform thermotolerant bacteria.
Total microbial number - the number of microorganisms per unit volume of the object under study. TMC allows one to get an idea of the massiveness of bacterial contamination of water. The higher the TMC, the greater the likelihood of pathogenic microorganisms entering the object.
Coliform organisms (total coliforms) are useful microbial indicators of drinking water quality. According to SanPiN recommendations, coliform bacteria should not be found in treated water supply systems. Incidental introduction of coliform organisms into the distribution system is acceptable, but not more than 5% of samples collected during any 12-month period. The presence of coliform organisms in water indicates insufficient purification, secondary pollution, or the presence of excess nutrients in the water.
Among coliform microorganisms, there is a group of thermotolerant bacteria that ferment lactose at 44°C for 24 hours. These bacteria are indicators of fresh fecal contamination.
Microbiological testing is performed only in addition to chemical analysis of water.
