At the AACC show 2015

September 2015—EKF Diagnostics launched its Altair 240 clinical chemistry analyzer, a benchtop platform that is EKF’s first fully integrated chemistry system for the global market. The fully automated system has LIS bidirectional connectivity, and double arm functionality yields up to 480 tests per hour. The Altair 240 is supported by EKF’s broad menu of Stanbio ready-to-use, barcoded liquid reagents for routine and special chemistries and it provides the flexibility to configure open channel applications for esoteric assays.

EKF also featured additions to its Stanbio clinical chemistry range including the Chemistry Glycated Serum Protein LiquiColor test, a new diabetes biomarker test that provides a two- to three-week indicator of average blood glucose.

Two point-of-care hemoglobin analyzers were also showcased by EKF: the DiaSpect Tm and HemoPoint H2. The DiaSpect Tm, a hemoglobin measuring system for anemia screening in all climatic conditions, is a handheld device that delivers results in less than two seconds. The HemoPoint H2 provides immediate results for hemoglobin and hematocrit and can store more than 4,000 patient results. Its proprietary soft load cuvette holder is designed to minimize contamination of the meter.
