What does "has been described in other work" mean in this sentence? [closed]

I'm currently reading a book about chemistry. Here is a sentence that I faced and didn't understand:

This procedure has been described in other work from our laboratory

I don't get what it means by "describe in other work"! The only thing came to my mind was that it was probably "in other words" and it's a misprint or something. Sorry for my bad English


This procedure has been described in other work from our laboratory

Could be paraphrased:

This way of doing things has been described in other research/papers/books written by the researchers from our laboratory
