cobas® prime pre-analytical system

The cobas® prime Pre-analytical System offers complete automation and continuous random loading to achieve an unprecedented level of efficiency in the molecular lab.

• An automated workflow helps protect the lab from cross contamination, processing error and missteps that can occur during scanning, aliquoting, sample preparation and reagent preparation.
• The system continuously loads — without presorting —multiple molecular sample types for multiple tests into a universal tray and performs pre-analytical processing before transferring the samples to the analyzer for testing.
• Perform fully automated standardized user workflows, such as tube type ID, sample integrity checks, vortexing, decapping, secondary barcode labeling, aliquoting, recapping, recursive recapping, heating, cooling and reagent addition.

Multiple sample types and tests can be consolidated to streamline the pre-analytical process and reduce the amount of training required.

• A single universal tray holds multiple sample types and is placed into a single system, eliminating the need for a variety of instruments to process a variety of sample types.
• The universal tray can be filled with samples in sample reception, then loaded directly into the cobas® prime Pre-analytical System without any additional manual handling.
• An optional Process Plus Module provides broader functionality including reagent addition and re-capping tubes.

Utilize industry leading instruments to form a single solution that transforms your operation into a laboratory of the future.

• Digital integration with navify® Lab Operations
  

• Improve ease of use and reduce staff training using a single instrument that can handle multiple sample types
• Reliably deliver predictable and efficient turnaround time and throughput
