Metrolab 2100
Clinical analyzer

Metrolab 2100 is a multiparametric clinical analyser for clinical chemistry, immunoassays and coagulation. It boasts of a totally automated operation.
Metrolab 2100 is a unique low cost instrument that operates with direct reading in reaction cups (no microcell flow system. It is two trays device wherein one is for sample and reagents and the other for reaction cups.
Features:
+ Optimised random batch: The instrument optimises time by selecting appropriate combinations between samples and reagents.
+ All operations are programmed and launched from a standard extended computer keyboard, helped by a mouse. The operation is very simple and straightforward.
+ Operates upto 18 tests per sample. Upto 99 different reagent combinations (trays) can be programmed. Five profiles can be included in each tray.
+ Colour and End point: Automatic dilution when measured concentration exceeds linear limit. Also, warning on high reagent absorbaces is provided.
+ Optics: Double beam arrangement compensates any variation in lamp and filters or dust accumulation; direct reading in reaction cups; bichromatic readings improve accuracy in trubid and coloured samples.
+ Hydraulic systems: System includes a single dilutor that delivers sample and reagents in steps of 0.5 ul. Uptake is made by a needle provided with a lever sensor. All tubings are made of biological PTFE that minimises contamination. Reagents are preheated in a non-metallic system before delivery into the reaction cup. Air gaps provide separation between reagent and samples.

Plastic tubes

For better test results The present practice of blood collection for complete blood count is to collect blood in 5 ml glass vials. The washing of vials in many laboratories is improper resulting in residual dirt in the vials. This can hamper the test results.

Perfect Reagents and Biologicals have launched plastic tubes instead of glass vials. In case of haematology tests, currently cell counters are used widely. The dipotassium EDTA salt employed in tests quickly mixes with the blood as compared to disodium EDTA. This company has dipotassium EDTA plastic tubes especially to serve this purpose.

Features:
+ Particle free dipotassium EDTA solution available.
+ Exact quantity solution of dipotassium EDTA that prevents clotting of blood sample or clumping of blood cells.
+ Tubes are transparent like glass test tubes.
+ Tubes are light weight and leak proof.
+ Less shaking of samples as compared to glass tubes.
+ Every tube has a marking at 2.5 ml level.
+ Economical.
+ Tubes can be centrifuged.
+ We have packed 100 tubes in such a fashion that after collection of blood sample the box itself works as a tube holder stand.
+ Also available are tubes for blood glucose tests, i.e. oxalate-flouride tubes and plain tubes for serum collection.
