这是BeckmanCoulter最新推出的生化分析仪，与DXC 700AU改自AU680一样，DXC 500AU改自AU480。
主要更改有软件界面与DXC 700AU相同，台面盖板大幅度更改，以便在线添加试剂。封闭试剂通道。
这样400速、800速和2000速的全系列生化都改为封闭试剂。至于AU5800是否也改为DXC-AU系列不得而知。不过AU5800已经有封闭试剂版本了。
在厂家官网上，生化分析仪产品介绍中，只有DXC500AU、DXC700AU和AU5800三种机型。而AU480列到了更多栏目，AU680彻底消失。
DxC 500 AU Chemistry Analyzer
System Simplicity for Expedient and Efficient Performance
Meet the DxC 500 AU—an easy-to-use chemistry analyzer that helps you optimize your operations, protect your productivity, and trust your results. Discover how we’re taking our clinical chemistry portfolio’s tradition of excellence to the next level.
Explore DxC 500 AU Features
1. Reliability We’ve designed reliability into every corner of the DxC 500 AU so you can count on: • Exceptional uptime with a high-performing analyzer • Consistently accurate results with the highest percentage of high-Sigma-performing assays — including the most Six-Sigma assays across major vendors • A solid supply chain that keeps you prepared to run the tests you need • Strong regulatory performance with minimal recalls • Dependable service with high first-time-fix rates
2. A Menu You Can Count On Our menu of 120+ assays is made up of high-quality Six Sigma performance assays. We designed this exceptional menu and high-performing analyzer to deliver consistently accurate results with minimal variability, and help detect errors/defects — all with minimal quality control and troubleshooting required.
3. ISE Electrodes
Our ISE electrodes are built to last up to six months or 40,000 samples — longer than any others on the market. That’s long-lasting, stable performance your busy lab can rely on.
4. On-the-Fly Loading
Count on continuous operation with on-the-fly reagent and consumable loading at any point during sample processing.
5. High-Performing Reagents Expect more from each kit. Our reagent portfolio offers: • Long-lasting stability and more tests per kit, meaning less time spent on reagent management and less unused reagent waste in your laboratory • Standardized reagents and assays for consistently accurate results across your network.
6. Intuitive Interface The intuitive interface gives even your newest users the support they need to work with confidence and drive value for your organization with:
• Proactive task indicators • Step-by-step instructions • Simplified staff onboarding and training
7. Sample Management
The DxC 500 AU’s state-of-the-art sample handler takes tedious prep work off your plate — just load it and go. With 12 lanes and the flexible DxLAB sample rack (which accommodates various tube and cup sizes), you can continuously load all samples in any open slot — including STAT. The analyzer will automatically prioritize testing appropriately.
Overview
Standardize on Excellence in Clinical Chemistry
Have confidence in accurate results you can trust—from anywhere in your network—with: - Standardized user experience for reduced operator variation, training, and troubleshooting
- Standardized test menus, assay protocols, and reference ranges for equivalent results across platforms
- Standardized quality control for confident comparisons of assay performance within your lab network and beyond
With this level of standardization, you can count on consistent and accurate results, informed patient care, and strong traceability to common standards. Reduce Waste and Simplify Your Workflows with Flexible Reagent Storage
The DxC 500 AU’s reagent refrigerator offers 76 positions (and up to 60 individual analytes) to accommodate the various sizes you need—including 15, 30, and 60 mL. With ready-to-use reagents, you can choose the right kit size for your lab’s workload—no prep work required. Don’t Waste Another Minute Finding the Right Sample Rack for Each Tube
Our unique DxLAB sample racks simplify sample loading of tube and nesting cups for easy processing of calibrators, quality control, and patient testing in a single rack. They accommodate various tube and cup sizes, so you can continuously load them as they arrive in the lab—no need to sort by size. Busy Shift? Bring It On.
With throughput of up to 800 photometric tests per hour with ISEs, demanding workloads are no match for you. The DxC 500 AU clinical chemistry analyzer empowers low-volume labs to handle testing surges with ease, so you’re always ready to deliver the right results, on time—every time.
