UP WITH RELIABILITY

Thanks to the IFA well-by-well washing procedure of the new Zenit UP.

  • The continuous flow system for sigle well uses two needles, one to dispense and one to aspirate.
  • Great accuracy, absolute reliability and no risk of cross contamination.

UP WITH SIMPLICITY

A new, easy to use, dedicated software gives you total control on every feature of the new Zenit UP.

The new Zenit UP’s management software represents another crucial part of the system: it has been designed to maximize efficiency and easeness of use and allows you to setup the work list, run a session, create and store the patient reports.
It runs under Windows XP and Windows 7 system and shows several features such as:

  • simultaneous execution of ELISA and IFA sessions
  • integrated bar code reader allowing automatic sample code acquisition
  • setup of a new work list also when a session is running
  • step by step session execution
  • print out of results, work lists, rack configurations
  • overnight incubations
  • management of 3 row slides and mosaic slides (as HEp-2+Tissues)
  • different levels of user permissions
  • host computer interface (LIS)
  • several instruments can be driven by the same PC

A MODULAR SYSTEM

One PC can manage multiple Zenit UP instruments.
Saved space, optimization of resources and total control of the workflow.
