UK Biocentre's laboratories in Milton Keynes are being used to analyse swab samples to support the national effort against the coronavirus pandemic. They are one of the three Lighthouse Labs - the biggest network of diagnostic testing facilities the UK has ever seen.Operations have expanded rapidly to analyse swab samples to determine whether COVID-19 is present, and capacity requirements are continuing to increase over time . We have repurposed existing laboratories and built new ones to provide the capacity required for such a significant undertaking.In order to achieve the sample throughput required, laboratory operations are 24/7. To reduce the requirement for staff to leave site and maximise productivity, UKBC provide staff with food and drink and set times throughout the day.
