A fully automated solution for urine strip testing

The cobas® u 601 urine analyzer is a fully automated urine strip testing system. Combining proven Combur-Test® reagent strips and a new generation of photometer technology, it provides reliable and confident results by capturing high-resolution images of the strip pads.

The Combur-Test strips use a proven unique reagent strip technology based on more than 60 years of experience. Using net sealing technology together with an iodated mesh and a specific parameter design, potential interference between test pads as well as ascorbic acid interference is minimized.1

Benefits at a glance

  • Continuous loading and unloading of sample rack
  • Loading of strips packed in RFID-labelled cassettes
  • Quality control (QC) management to reduce operator intervention and improve workflow

An innovative photometer with improved reflectance technology identifies errors on the strip pads, which can differentiate between lysed and intact erythrocytes to produce highly reliable results.1

The system can identify issues such as dust on the strip, a bent strip, or an insufficient or excessive urine sample volume. When an error is detected, the system provides a corresponding message to indicate the cause.

The stand-alone cobas u 601 urine analyzer can be upgraded on-site with the cobas® u 701 microscopy analyzer for automated sediment analysis. Together, they form the cobas® 6500 urine analyzer series, a urine work area with automated sample transportation throughout the entire system.
