cobas p 680 Instrument

The cobas p 680 Instrument automates blood sample pooling and pipetting for Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT) and archiving. With a software interface designed to complement the cobas^® 6800 System and cobas^® 8800 System, this pre-analytic system supports optimized workflow efficiency and full traceability.

Standardize workflows

• Automate secondary-tube pooling and pipetting into aliquot plates for archiving
• Utilizes Roche-standard 5-position racks and rack trays to help streamline workflow with our pre-analytic and analytic systems
• Automated rack loading onto instrument once trays are deposited

Precise sample handling during pipetting

• Total aspiration and dispense monitoring (TADM) for accurate sample transfer
• Capacitive liquid level detection to prevent overflow and contamination
• Compressed O-ring expansion (CO-RE) tip technology prevents contamination by aerosols

Safeguard data across the entire workflow

• Barcoded secondary tubes for end-to-end sample traceability
• The error lane allows users to easily identify tubes with pipetting errors
• Full integration into the cobas^® 6800 System and cobas^® 8800 System software for seamless data transfer

Flexibility for future growth

• Connect up to 6 cobas p 680 instruments to the cobas^® 6800 System and cobas^® 8800 System
• Deck capacity for 500 tubes
