cobas c 501 module for clinical chemistry
The cobas c 501 module is a mid volume analyzer comprised of a photometric unit for a broad range of clinical chemistry assays and an ISE unit for ion-selective electrode determinations of sodium, potassium, and chloride in serum, plasma, or urine. This module is also capable of measuring HbA1c levels in whole blood, making it a truly flexible and versatile analyzer.
