Automatic Blood Cell Counter Plus CRP LC-170CRP

Overview

LC-170CRP is an automatic blood cell counting and CRP measuring instrument that simultaneously measures 18 parameters including 3-part differential of WBC, and CRP concentration.

Features

  • Simultaneous measurement of multiple infectious disease markers
    WBC counts and CRP concentration are simultaneously measured to help in the diagnosis of cases requiring emergency treatment.

  • Quick measurement
    It measures with whole blood, as well as serum and plasma - Preprocessing is not required: this saves time and eliminates possibility of dilution errors. So it takes just 75 seconds to get the blood test results for 18 parameters and approx. 4 minutes and 20 seconds to get the test result of those 18 parameter and CRP concentration. Accordingly diagnosis is shortly performed, because the result can be acquired even during the consultation.

  • Sample holder mechanism and automatic probe cleaning function
    It is possible to measure only by setting the sample in the holder. Also, the sampling probe is automatically cleaned off, so that any blood stack doesn’t occur. You don’t need to wipe the probe every time measurement is performed. Owing to this safe structure design, you are free from fear of infection or contamination.

  • Sample volume: CBC - 10µL, CBC+CRP - 18µL
    Sample volume is 10µL of whole blood for blood tests involving 18 parameters and 18µL of whole blood for blood tests involving those 18 parameters and CRP concentration. Measurement can be performed without any problem for children from whom it is difficult to draw blood.

  • High accuracy measurement
    The automatic needle cleaning function and automatic cleaning in each measurement eliminate the fear of carryover problem.

  • Full alarm functions
    Various sensors always check the condition of the instrument. If any abnormality is detected, an error message is displayed so that occurrence of trouble is prevented.

  • Built-in reagents and printer
    The compact design features reagents stored at the front, other than the diluent and a built-in printer on the top.
