Features

Accurate Data through Simple Operation.
Reliable Functions Packed in a Compact Body.

  • Instant data provided at the clinical site
    Measurement takes only about 60 seconds. You can obtain the data you need
    while interviewing the patient. A must for EBM (evidence-based medicine).
  • 試薬も収納したコンパクトボディBuilt in reagents in a compact body
    Two reagent varieties are stored in Microsemi. It is so space-saving that you can place
    it anywhere you choose. *Note that the dilute solution container and waste tank are not built in.
  • Touch screen system for easy operation
    With no buttons, LC-660 is easy not only to use but also to clean.
    It is also excellent from the perspective of infection prevention.
  • Noise-free operation
    LC-660 has been developed with quietness in mind.
    You can use it even while interviewing the patient without worrying about distracting noise.
  • Minimal sample volumes
    Just 10µL blood is sufficient for measurement cycle. No need for dilution even when using minute amounts of blood collected from ear lobe or fingertip. This is especially beneficial when collecting samples from children.
    *With micro volume samples, platelet and 3-part differential of WBC measurement results may not always be accurate.
  • Eco-friendly reagent
    In consideration of the environment, a non-cyanide reagent is used for hemoglobin measurement.
  • Timer function that lightens your workload
    Activation, termination, and cleaning of LC-660 are automatic, thanks to an in-unit timer.
    LC-660 is ready to be used when you start seeing patients.
  • Excellent quality control
    LC-660 quality control is assured through LJ and XB graphs.
    Well-developed quality control contributes to reliability of data.
