Robotic laboratories are becoming increasingly common in drug discovery and toxicology. Robots take samples from real-world environments and analyze them for specific targets for toxic chemicals or other substances, then return the results to a computer for further analysis. This type of lab is often used in conjunction with automated systems to control processes, minimizing human error. As a result, robotic labs can be more secure and less expensive than their counterparts, and they're ideal for situations where the environment is dangerous or highly variable.
