ADVIA 1800 Chemistry System
Pushing the limit of productivity
The ADVIA® 1800 Clinical Chemistry System pushes the limit of productivity. Its extensive menu allows integration of testing for clinical chemistry, drugs-of-abuse, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and specific proteins such as cystatin C and CardioPhase® hsCRP. The ADVIA 1800 Clinical Chemistry System offers:
- Throughput of up to 1,800 tests per hour to keep pace with workload peaks
- 200 basic metabolic panels per hour to meet turnaround-time demands
- Large onboard reagent capacity and optional concentrated reagents to reduce interruptions
- Optimal standardization of reagents and systems for efficient consumable usage
- Refrigerated onboard storage of controls and reagents for extended stability and increased productivity
- Automation-ready design: no additional hardware required
The ADVIA 1800® Clinical Chemistry System pushes the limit of productivity in the core lab and meets the turnaround-time (TAT) goals of today’s laboratories. Its extensive menu allows integration of general clinical chemistry testing with testing for drugs-of-abuse, TDM, special chemistry, and specific proteins such as cystatin C and CardioPhase® hsCRP.
Automation-ready design
- Point-in-space aspiration enables connectivity to a track, VersaCell® System.
- Redundant sample loading provides built-in backup and easy handling of non-routine samples.
- Direct sampling from track prevents tubes being detained at an analyzer and reduces aliquoting.
Peak productivity
- Throughput of up to 1,800 tests per hour provides the speed to keep pace with workload peaks.
- Throughput of 200 basic metabolic panels per hour helps to meet turnaround-time demands.
- Automatic Sample Retain technology lets you perform reruns and dilutions without the need to retrieve primary tubes.
- Consolidate chemistry testing on one system with a comprehensive menu, consistent cycle times, speed, and open application capability.
Total system reliability
- Minimal-maintenance ISEs
- Robust hardware and simplified software design, with automatic calibration validation and tracking
- Advances in reagent onboard stability, calibration frequency, interference reduction and assay linearity expansion
- Direct water connection
- Remote diagnostics and Inter-Laboratory Quality Control (ILQC) options
Easy efficiency
- Large onboard reagent capacity and optional concentrated reagents reduce interruptions.
- High-resolution touchscreen delivers push-button operation.
- Reagent pause capability and onboard Sample Pause button make loading easy.
- Minimal maintenance requirements, including no-maintenance oil bath, reduce hands-on time.
- Sample integrity checking, include serum indices reporting, short-sample flagging, and clot detection, reducing the need for manual intervention.
