- Open software allows any brand of immunoassay to
be used with the system.
|
- System is optimized upon power up as it runs
self-diagnostic tests to ensure its internal optics and mechanisms plus
software are operating at optimal levels.
|
- Easy to operate. A dialogue of straightforward
prompts guide the user through the programming and operating
processes.
|
|
- Automatically transports single or double
microwell strips. Also accepts NUNC or break-away microwells when using
the respective microwell strip adapters (optional).
|
- Built-in alphanumeric and graphic printer
provides high-quality hardcopy of test results, test parameters and
curves.
|
- Standard software calculates absorbance,
single-point concentration, concentration curves (using multiple
standards) and qualitative (cutoff) tests.
|
- Optional software allows calculation of
delta-absorbance (end-point) and coagulation.
|
- Offers comprehensive curve-fitting interpolation
techniques, including:
Choice of four algorithms: point-to-point,
regression line, polynomial (degree user-definable) and cubic
spline.
Choice of three axis-transforms: linear,
logarithmic and logit.
|
|
- A Concentration curve may be created manually or
automatically. The MicroReader 3 creates a curve, with known
concentrations, automatically by measuring the standards in the strip
rather than the user entering them manually.
|
- A curve may be updated as the test is run. The
user may select the newly created curve or maintain the original one
from memory. This provides a quick and convenient method of verifying
the standards, from time to time, as required by many reagent
manufacturers.
|
- System is equipped with six filters, instead of
only four, as follows: 405nm, 450nm, 490nm, 540nm, 630nm and 650nm.
Other filters, between 400nm and 700nm, are available by special
order.
|
- Performs monochromatic and bichromatic optical
readings, user-selectable.
|
- RS-232 Serial Port allows the MicroReader 3 to
be interfaced to a computer. Results are exported to the computer, one
by one, as they are measured. Requires optional Software Wedge Program
also available from Hyperion.
|
- Programmed tests may be edited or recalled for
immediate use at any time
|
- Two line LCD Display and self-explanatory keypad
facilitate data entry, test selection and editing procedures.
|
- Ideal for labs who have small to medium sample
work loads and require sophisticated data-reduction but cannot justify
the costs of a full plate reader.
