Awareness Technology Chemistry Analyzers Enhance Lab Productivity

Chemistry analyzers test for several types of analytes in bodily fluids and are indispensable tools in clinical laboratories and research settings. These devices are used to analyze sample types such as whole blood, serum, cerebrospinal fluid, urine, plasma to detect different types of analytes such as albumin, nitrogen, uric acid, glucose, creatinine, inorganic phosphorus, urea, calcium, bilirubin, magnesium and iron. Test results are used in preventive medicine to counsel patients.

Leading manufacturers such as Awareness Technology Inc. offer innovative models of chemistry analyzers integrated with user-friendly features and sensitive immunoassay testing capabilities, and require minimal operator intervention.

Chemistry Analyzer Models from Awareness Technology

STAT FAX 3300 - This analyzer model stores control values and create Levey-Jennings plots for QC. Stat Fax 3300 comes with flip-up display screen - Large 240 x 128 pixel graphical display. The plug-in standard external keyboard (which is sold separately) facilitates easy data entry. The device has a capacity to store patient data and displays kinetic plots in real time. It features a vacuum system that speeds up sampling and reduces carryover. Some of its other features include -

• Optical system is temperature controlled to 37C
• Bichromatic w/ 6 filters and spaces for 2 optional filters (340-700nm)
• Adapts to use 12 mm round tubes, 1 cm square cuvettes, or built in flow cell
• Calibration traceable to NIST standard
• Stat Fax readers use IAD filters
• Use 40-column on-board thermal printer, external printer, or PC

ChemWell 2910 - This is an easy-to-program system that set up assays, routine jobs, quality control, panels, and index calculations to suit specific laboratory needs. Integrated with an open system, it allows programming additional wash volume, increases the number of washes, or even directs the probe to pick up and dispense a probe cleaning solution after each specimen. ChemWell comes with a capacity to process EIA at ambient temperature or 37°C. Other features include -

• Self-monitoring mechanics and optics
• QC tracking
• No carry-over
• Liquid sensing probe tip
• Auto dilute and retest for over-range samples
• 8-well wash head
• 200 tests per hour

ChemWell T - This is a fully automated, random access analyzer for biochemistry and immuno-turbidimetric assays. Designed specifically to meet the needs of lower throughput labs, ChemWell T calculates and edits curves for a wide variety of endpoint and kinetic assays. It features 8 strips of 5 cuvettes each allow 40 reactions without intervention. Cuvettes are easy to load and unload and automatically glide through the optical system for endpoint and kinetic reading. Other features include -

• Washes automatically
• Retracts safely if probe contacts an obstacle
• Oscillates to mix
• Measures remaining volume
• Detects liquid surface
• Delivers 5mL to 450mL with typical precision of 2% CV or better
• Automatic system checks and error messages
