As a measure of the efficiency of service provided to the Groote Schuur group of hospitals by the Department of Clinical Pharmacology, certain costs were analaysed. The approximate annual cost of routine analytical work was R40 000 $45 000 or 22 000 pounds). The average cost per assy was R9,50 ($11,30 or 5,50 pounds). Closer examination of data showed that the cheapest assays are those done in large batches using an off-line analytical technique such as thin-layer chromatographic densitometry.
作为临床药理学系向格罗特·舒尔医院集团提供服务效率的一项衡量指标，对某些成本进行了分析。常规分析工作的年成本约为40000兰特（45000美元或22000英镑）。每次分析的平均成本为9.50兰特（11.30美元或5.50英镑）。对数据的进一步审查表明，最便宜的分析方法是那些使用离线分析技术（如薄层色谱密度测定法）进行的大批量分析。
