Sysmex CS-2400/2500
Sysmex Corporation. Japan
DESIGNED FOR VERSATILITY AND EXCELLENCE IN THE LABORATORY
The CS-2500 analyzer is capable of simultaneously performing tests to evaluate all components of hemostasis—including primary vascular-platelet hemostasis, secondary hemostasis, and fibrinolysis—as well as immunoturbidimetric tests.
Multi-wavelength technology, featuring an optical system that automatically adapts based on sample properties, enables highly accurate results—even when working with "difficult" samples.
The optical system comprises 10 independent analytical channels, allowing the CS-2500 analyzer to perform tests using all supported methodologies simultaneously at no fewer than five wavelengths.
Automated high-precision testing of platelet function using aggregometry
Improved quality of results for pathological samples; automated retesting and reflex testing rules integrated into the software.
Process automation
Thanks to the capability to process primary tubes, samples can be placed into the analyzer immediately after centrifugation, without any additional handling.
Reagents, samples, and cuvettes are loaded during operation, ensuring continuous testing regardless of the workload.
The capacity to load 500 cuvettes on board ensures long-term instrument operation without operator intervention.
When upper and lower limits for re-analysis are set, the system automatically performs a re-analysis—using new dilutions, if necessary.
Automated hemostasis system analyzer with aggregometer function
Combining both routine hemostasis assessment tests and highly specialized assays within a single analytical system
Automatic sample quality control
Improved quality of results for pathological samples
Automated high-precision platelet function testing
Extended assessments of hemostasis inhibitors
Throughput of up to 180 tests per hour for clotting assays, with the capability to analyze a sample for 60 parameters.
Control of pre-analytical and analytical phases
Determination of the correctness of the blood-to-anticoagulant ratio, with the option (at the user's discretion) to accept or reject the sample for further analysis.
The optical system of the CS-2500 analyzer allows for the assessment of the level of hemolysis, icterus, and lipemia in a sample (HIL detector), with subsequent flagging of results that do not meet user-defined quality criteria.
One of the sections of each reagent rack allows for the mixing of reagents.
The cap-piercing function eliminates direct contact with biological material, significantly reducing the risk of infection via airborne transmission.
Reagent racks are placed on a dual, rotating, thermostated tray with 40 positions.
The vials are slightly tilted to reduce dead volume and increase the number of tests per vial, thereby enhancing the economic efficiency of operating the analyzer.
