It is used with analyzers that perform tests in the area of clinical chemistry, immuno chemistry, coagulation, hematology, urinanalysis, nucleic acid, and allergy testing.

It includes modules for registration and decapping of sample tubes, liquid level detection, and sample quality assessment (optional), as well as recapping of sample tubes (optional).

In case of standalone use of the pre-analytical system, the transfer of tubes processed on the pre-analytical system to any other workstation within the laboratory is a subject of validation performed by laboratory itself.

The CCM- and the BMK-variant are not released for use in US for blood donor testing. In US blood establishment the LIS middleware interface is limited to Instrument Manager from Data Innovations.", "Country": "US", "Code": "Intended Use", "Name": "Intended Use" } ] } } ] }

cobas p 512 and cobas p 612 pre-analytical systems

Adapting to today’s needs. Flexible for tomorrow’s demand.

Empower your lab’s ability to meet changing demands with the cobas p 512 and p 612 pre-analytical systems. These standalone automation solutions enable automation of multiple sample types with flexible sort targets. Even with a compact footprint, you can still process up to 1,400 tubes per hour. These standalone automation solutions are validated for cross-contamination compliance and therefore may be used to automate and simplify processes in clinical laboratories and blood banks.
