What is Siemens Advia Centaur?
The ADVIA Centaur CP System is an immunoassay test instrument for mid-volume labs. Its broad menu lets you both expand and consolidate – by bringing a wide range of assays to one workstation, eliminating redundant systems. The ADVIA Centaur CP System is easy to operate, increases efficiency and streamlines workflow.
What is an immunoassay analyzer?
Immunoassay analyzers are used to identify and detect the concentration of specific substances in a sample, usually using an antibody as a reagent.
What is Immulite?
The IMMULITE 2000 XPi system is a continuous random access immunoassay analyzer with a maximum throughput of 200 tests per hour. This design increases workflow and enhances productivity for medium- to high-volume immunoassay laboratories by incorporating specialty and allergy testing into one platform.
What is Siemens immunoassay?
Siemens Healthcare Laboratory Diagnostics offers fully automated immunoassay platforms and a comprehensive, disease-focused menu in excess of 100 tests, to deliver powerful productivity and efficiency, providing better medical information to clinicians.
Is immunoassay a blood test?
ELISA stands for enzyme-linked immunoassay. It is a commonly used laboratory test to detect antibodies in the blood. An antibody is a protein produced by the body's immune system when it detects harmful substances, called antigens.
How do immunoassays actually work?
Immunoassay testing works by using antibodies to detect small biological substances in the blood and other bodily fluids. The method follows the aspect that particular antigens binds to specific newly introduced antibodies, thereby stimulating an immune response.
What can immunoassay detect?
Immunoassays are considered the gold standard laboratory assays for a variety of diseases that involve natural host immune responses. These include, but are not limited to, detection of infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, and certain forms of cardiovascular disease.
