BMD-M1

Single Channel Por table Coagulometer

The BMD-M1 is ideal for small and medium size laboratories, blood banks, intensive care
units and emergency services. Its optical detection system uses only one-quarter of the
volume of sample and reagents generally required by other analyzers.
The coefficients of variation obtained are lower than 2 to 5%, depending on the test and
reagents used. A new double micro-cuvette allows for effective and rapid processing of a
larger number of samples. Automatic amplification has been especially designed for new
sensitive thromboplastin reagents and equalizes high differences of turbidity from reagents
and samples. All specific test parameters are preset in its memory and its interactive program
can be adjusted according to the preferences of the operator.
The measurement can be started either manually when the reagent is added or with a connected autopipette and electronic start.
The results are displayed in the measured dimension and can be converted into other desired units with the press of a button.
A connected printer will automatically print out the results in all dimensions with optic channel, patient number and test name.
Computer connectivity allows measuring curve data to be transmitted to use in spreadsheet or report programs. Software updates
can be easily applied to the instrument from a personal computer.
