Sysmex CA-101
The CA-101 uses turbo-densitometry and combines the best of both mechanical and optical detection principles. The lamp intensity automatically adjusts to sample turbidity, which means all samples are properly analysed with constant high quality results. Results are automatically calculated for PT and fibrinogen. They can be output to an optional external printer.
Standardised procedure
The instrument incubates and mixes sample and reagent automatically and indicates when to add starting reagent. The auto-start function automatically detects when reagent is added (pipetting is done manually) and triggers mixing and clot detection. This procedure requires only little manual intervention, is easy to perform and ensures consistent, high quality results so you can focus further on standardisation in your lab.
