COBAS C 501 ANALYZER

A modular analytical system designed to simplify operations of laboratories and efficiently interact between laboratories and healthcare facilities. It provides an individual solution for performing a wide range of biochemical and immunochemical assays for laboratories with medium to high workload. Flexible combinations of biochemical (c) and immunochemical (e) modules allow creating a consolidated serum working area or specialized immunochemical/biochemical systems.
Depending on the configuration, the series of analyzers cobas® 6000 achieves productivity of up to 3 million assays per year.

Characteristics

Wide test opportunities

Combines more than 220 tests and applications in one platform:

- more than 120 tests are from clinical chemistry, including electrolytes, substrates, enzymes, proteins;

- more than 100 tests are for immunochemical studies, including for the determination of hormones, markers of anemia, infectious, bone, tumor and cardiomarkers

Throughput: up to 600 samples/hour (over 2000 tests per hour)

Permanent direct access to 85 reagent channels (60 reagent channels in cobas c 501 module and 25 reagent channels in cobas e 601module

9-minute applications for rapid troponins, CPK-MB, proBNP, myoglobin, parathormone and hCG tests

Easy to use

A possibility to consolidate more than 95 % of routine work in the field of biochemistry and immunochemistry on the basis of one system. In this case, an assay is being made using one sample by one operator through one connection with the LIS

Comfortable, universal design ready to use cassettes with reagents (cobas c and cobas e) ensuring comparability of results on all cobas® line modular systems

The high stability of reagents after opening ensures their effective use even for rarely performed tests

More than 90% of all reagents in one day per lot

Reliability

High-quality results that are unique to all cobas® analyzers

ECL technology delivers high analytical sensitivity and a wide range of assays
