Two teams, BioGnost Zagreb and BioGnost S Belgrade successfully organized the professional education conference “Green Laboratories – Protocols, Perspectives and New EU Legislative Framework” on 27 February 2026 at the Biblioteka grada Beograda (City Library of Belgrade).

The event gathered laboratory medicine professionals, healthcare experts, and industry representatives for a full day of expert lectures and constructive discussion focused on implementing sustainable laboratory practices. The conference addressed practical approaches to reducing environmental impact while maintaining the highest standards of diagnostic quality and patient safety.

The program was aligned with the recommendations of the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (EFLM) and the objectives of the European Commission initiative European Green Deal, reinforcing BioGnost’s commitment to responsible innovation and long-term sustainability in laboratory medicine.

Key topics included education and training for green laboratory operations, the introduction of environmentally responsible reagents and reduction of chemical risks, sustainable laboratory management strategies, and quality control in histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and molecular diagnostics.

Speakers emphasized the importance of measurable and actionable steps toward sustainable transformation, highlighting practical solutions that can be implemented immediately within laboratory systems. These principles are strongly reflected in BioGnost’s own BioGREEN product line, developed to support laboratories in reducing their environmental footprint while maintaining the highest diagnostic standards.

The event featured lectures by Prof. Borović-Labudović, Prof. Micev, and Dr. Marchiotti.

We sincerely thank all three speakers for their valuable lectures and contribution to the success of this inspiring event.
