4 Things you should know before buying XL 1000 Automated Coagulation Analyzer

XL Automated 1000 Coagulation Analyzer can quickly and precisely measure a wide range of coagulation assays which includes Routine and Special Coagulation Assays and Factors. In this article, you get to know 4 important things to check before buying an XL 1000 Automated Coagulation Analyzer for your lab.

1. Smaller Footprint – Larger Coverage 

One of the standout features of the XL 1000 is its compact design, which makes it an ideal choice for hospitals with limited space. Despite its smaller footprint, this analyzer offers a comprehensive suite of coagulation assays, catering to diverse testing requirements. From routine tests to specialized assays, the XL 1000 handles them all effortlessly, guaranteeing accurate and timely results. 

By embracing the XL 1000 Fully Automated Coagulation Analyzer, hospitals can revolutionize their laboratory capabilities, enhancing efficiency and delivering more reliable diagnostic outcomes. This state-of-the-art instrument not only streamlines workflow and minimizes manual tasks but also provides a user-friendly solution for healthcare professionals seeking to optimize their coagulation analysis processes. 

How it Helps you 

  • ● This will not block your space 
  • ● It can easily fit onto a shelf or a Sturdy table 
  • ● A single person is more than enough to handle it

2. Gold Standard Technology in Coagulation 

The XL 1000 Fully Automated Coagulation Analyzer goes above and beyond in delivering accurate results for both routine and special coagulation assays. This is made possible through the integration of sophisticated nephelometry and turbidometry technologies, which enhance the precision and reliability of the analysis process. 

Nephelometry, a technique used to measure the amount of light scattered by particles in a solution, plays a crucial role in determining the concentration of certain analytes in coagulation assays. By measuring the intensity of the scattered light, the XL 1000 can accurately quantify various coagulation factors, such as fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor. This enables healthcare professionals to assess clotting tendencies and diagnose conditions related to coagulation disorders with utmost confidence. 

Turbidimetry, on the other hand, is employed to measure the turbidity or cloudiness of a solution. In coagulation assays, turbidimetry assists in determining the clotting characteristics of samples by analyzing the changes in optical density. By monitoring the turbidity, the XL 1000 can precisely assess parameters such as prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and other clotting factors. This technology ensures accurate and consistent results, facilitating the diagnosis and monitoring of coagulation disorders. 

The combination of nephelometry and turbidimetry technologies in the XL 1000 brings a new level of accuracy to coagulation analysis. These advanced techniques enable the analyzer to detect even subtle changes in clotting factors, providing healthcare professionals with valuable insights into patients' coagulation profiles. 

How it benefits you 

  • Generate accurate results 
  • Higher productivity
  • Take more tests in less time 
  • No need to individually encode each test sample,
