(Universidad EAFIT, 2020) Botero Ochoa, Laura; Giraldo Hernández, Gina María; Restrepo Álvarez, Andrés Felipe
In a globalized context, the constant concern of entities such as the World Health Organization is to protect the human health through the commercialization of products that complies with existing regulations, quality control laboratories which ensure the microbiological condition of the products analyzed through the fulfillment of people's technical competence, appropriate environmental conditions, use of appropriate methodologies, equipment and facilities. According to this, the use of analytical areas becomes a critical item to ensure an adequate analytical process and therefore a reliable result. The present work makes a diagnosis of the existing layout of a microbiology laboratory located in Medellín, evaluates opportunities for improvement and proposes a new distribution for the project to expand to a new facility. It was possible to identify critical aspects to consider for the design of this type of facilities and propose a new model adjusted to current needs and future growth of the organization.
