Abaxis Piccolo Xpress Blood Analyser
Available for rental, lease or purchase
Abaxis Piccolo Xpress Blood Analyser
This blood analyser is great for studies that have no time to send off samples and wait around. The analyser, analysis results that are available immediately and help you save time and optimise logistics. With the ability to do daily checks, the daily checks are performed using the iQC ™ system, which automatically performs and assesses over 100 quality checks for each sample.
The single-use discs already contain the dilution medium and different combinations of chemical reagents to measure up to 14 parameters per disc, making this device a true Point of Care system.
- Only 0.1cc whole blood, serum, or plasma required for testing
- Self-calibrates with every test run - no manual data entry
- Full-color touch screen and intuitive user interface
- Results are printed on a self-adhesive hard copy or via electronic transfer, allowing immediate access to critical information at the point-of-care
- Large memory capacity stores up to 5000 patient records
- Externally accessible bi-directional USB data transfer technology facilitates EMR connectivity
