Oncolab
Oncolab is a personalized or prescription-based fully automated robotic drug preparation system that reduces the risks to the patient and the environment within a closed sterile environment.

- Error prone drug preparation
- The need for handling waste during oncological drug preparation
- Residue material after preparation of oncological drugs
- Increase in oncological cases
- High cost of oncological treatments
According to researchers, cancer patients may die due to the use of incorrect doses during the drug preparation stage. At this point Oncolab provides a solution that offers reliable oncological drugs that are composed of right dosage and ratio of compounds.
Oncolab allows sending of personalized prescriptions created by the healthcare professionals with active pharmaceutical ingredients to the lab settings to be prepared. After the controls are done by the pharmacist, the whole process is left to the robotic environment. The entire process, including the labeling of personal chemotherapy drugs or drug dilution, is conducted by the robot. Pharmacists’ only duty is to give approval to the prescription, after that robotic mechanism takes care of the preparation of the drug.
Drug preparation is completed automatically with multi-camera and gravimetric controls inside the cell with negative pressure and ISO 5 air quality. The entire process, including the mixer, holder and 3D movements, the waste system, the drug dilution system, is done by the machine. After the preparation of drugs, the waste is handled carefully to preserve environmental safety and residual components are kept for future use.
