cobas^® 8800 System

Offering highly efficient workflows from sample processing to result interpretation, the cobas^® 8800 System puts the future of molecular testing in your hands. Our broad assay menu is held to the rigorous performance standards you expect from Roche, and our real-time PCR technology delivers reliable results every time.

A fully integrated and automated system for sample preparation and real-time PCR, the cobas^® 8800 System is designed to be readily integrated into the laboratory workflow from pre-analytic to post-analytic solutions.

Rapidly complete your daily testing requirements when you generate trusted, reproducible results.

• Fastest time to result—up to 96 tests in about 3 hours
• Unprecedented throughput—up to 960* tests in an 8-hour shift

• Ready-to-load reagents do not require thawing, mixing or pouring, while radio-frequency identification (RFID) and barcodes ensure full traceability from the sample into results out
• Automated onboard storage and refrigeration system enable ready access and maintain an inventory of consumables and reagents
• Uni- and bi-directional laboratory information system (LIS) interface simplifies order and result handling
• Connect Hamiltion STAR along with Synergy software for automated pooling, sample archiving, and workflow traceability

*May vary based on workflow demands

• Mixed testing makes it possible to perform up to 3 tests in the same run with no pre-sorting required
• Optimise sample utilisation, processing up to three different tests from a single patient sample
• Simplify workflow using universal processes, consumables and reagents so you can run any test any time you want
• Meet your needs today and in the future with a broad and expanding assay menu
• Handle high-priority samples quickly and easily with a dedicated priority lane

The cobas^® 8800 System has the ability to connect with pre- and post-analytic instruments, as well as those associated with other disciplines using cobas^® connection modules (CCM).
