Low Volume Clinical Chemistry Analyzer

The Low Volume Clinical Chemistry Analyzer is a compact laboratory diagnostic instrument designed for the quantitative analysis of biochemical parameters in patient samples such as serum and plasma, with other sample types depending on the assay and analyzer configuration. It is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized laboratories, clinics, primary healthcare facilities, diagnostic centres and laboratories with relatively low daily chemistry-test volumes. Depending on the configuration, clinical chemistry analyzers use photometric measurement to determine analytes such as glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, total protein, albumin, bilirubin, creatinine, urea, uric acid and various enzymes. Compact systems are available in semi-automatic and fully automatic configurations, so the exact operating method should be confirmed from the supplied unit. The low-volume format can help laboratories reduce reagent and sample consumption while maintaining access to routine clinical chemistry testing.
