Providing fully automated, confident strip testing results1

IVD For in vitro diagnostic use.
cobas u 601 urine analyzer
Platform for urine strip testing - fully automated solution for laboratories

The cobas® u 601 urine analyzer is a modular, analytical system platform for urine strip testing and features a fully automated solution for laboratories processing 50 – 1,000 urine samples per day

The innovative and proven technologies allow cobas® u 601 to deliver high quality results and minimize operator intervention while providing confidence in results.1

Innovative photometer technology

Using the new photometer technology for the strip result reading enables the instrument to deliver complete information for blood testing: concentration of hemoglobin and counting result of erythrocytes up to 50 cells/μL by differentiating the intact and lysed erythrocytes.

Using the new photometer technology enables cobas u 601 to spot errors from the testing process and eliminate wrong results. If there is dust on the strip, or if the strip was bent, or if not enough/too much urine sample was pipetted onto the strip, the instrument can give error messages to indicate the reasons.
 

Chemstrip® technology

Chemstrip® technology has more than 50 years history in the market. It is proven technology and is continuing to be used on cobas u 601 urine analyzer.
