PK7300 Automated Microplate System: Comprehensive blood banking solution
The PK7300 Automated Microplate System leads the industry in pre-transfusion, automated blood donor testing. System features include 300-sample-per-hour throughput, full online system status updates, data transfer capabilities, and aspiration and dispense monitoring intelligence. The PK7300 also self-monitors critical instrument processes with alarms, including result validation for abnormal conditions.
Simplicity and efficiency
- High throughput of up to 300 samples per hour allows rapid analysis of large volumes of samples
- Reduce training time with customized menus, icons and color-keyed graphics
- Save time and money with programmable, fully automated start-up mode
- Onboard data management allows you to store and search test results and data can be saved for off-line analysis and archiving
Quality and reliability
- Get reliable analysis using a high-resolution CCD camera
- Enhance test reliability using barcodes to automate management of samples, microplates, reagents and diluents
- Continuously monitor dispensed volumes of samples, reagents and diluents; anomalies are automatically detected, displayed and reported
