Lab Rat or Button Monkey? » Siemens http://blog.biomedicalscience.org.uk Under the white coat Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:16:56 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Siemens http://blog.biomedicalscience.org.uk/2007/02/16/siemens/ http://blog.biomedicalscience.org.uk/2007/02/16/siemens/#comments Fri, 16 Feb 2007 05:39:23 +0000 dapo http://blog.biomedicalscience.org.uk/archives/19 Thjis is the new name for anything provided by either DPC or Bayer, as Siemens have bought both companies.  I think in the case of Bayer, they only bought the diagnostic division. The following is the link to the diagnostic section of their site.

I think the site needs a bit of a tidy, as it seems to take a far clicks to find things that could be accessible slightly quicker. Take for example TSH analysis on the Immulite, you click on products, then click on Immulite.  It now goes the options of several different links, two of which might lead us to the technical information about TSH.  Assay menu is just a list of tests, no links provided for their package inserts. If you choose Package Inserts, you then have to select the analyser again!

I think the major problem of this site is that it is the combination of two companies products i.e. Bayer and DPC.  It may take require some time and effort on the part of Siemens to smooth out the rough edges.
