Nihon Kohden MEK 6500 is an hematology analyzers with three differential blood count with 19 parameters:
- Simple to operate. Measurement is activated with the touch of a single button;
- The security of the amount of aspirated volume is provided with the assistance of the manometers which are not affected by any contamination or change in viscosity of the sample. Оperation speed up to 63 samples / h;
- Minimum need for maintenance. Automatically programmed washing after 10 measurements. In case any additional work is required by the operator it is simply solved through the software by pressing a button;
- Possibility of automatic measurement of noise when starting the device.
- Specially designed to track the specimen with two chambers for mixing, two needles and dock washing needles, which decreases the possibility of contamination to a minimum;
- Quantities which are consumed for one measurement are extremely low, this makes the test price low and makes this instrument series attractive. It is important to note the fact that this series of analyzers use environmentally eligible hemolizing reagent without cyanide;
- Possibility of defining the critical values which alert the operator and the automatic dilution;
- Extremely wide measurement range for all parameters
- System for monitoring the level of reagents that enables their easier monitoring and course of the daily routine;
- Data protection via password;
- Results with histograms are present in relatively large LCD (Touch Screen) color screen that responds to touch.
- Many different informational messages when the results are outside the allowed range for example:
- Leukocytosis
- Leukopenia
- Eruthrocytosis
- Anemia
- Thrombocytosis
- Thrombocytopenia
Techical characteristics:
- Simultaneous 19 parameter measurement: WBC, LY%, MO%, GR%, LY, MO, GR, RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW-SD, RDW-CV, PLT, PCT, MPV, PDW;
- Capacity up to 60 samples/h;
- LCD (Touch Screen) that responds to touch;
- Two channels for measuring, one WBC/HGB (white blood cells and hemoglobin) and one for RBC/PLT (red blood cells and platelet)
- Minimum need of a sample volume of 30 μL.
- Memory up to 400 results with possibility to connect with external memory.
- Automatic sample diluation, as well as ability to perform test on bigger or smaller samples.
- Works with 3 reagents as follows:
- Diluent,
- Lyzer and
- Cleaner;
- Automatic removal of coagulum
- Ability for automatic blank testing
- Ability for calibration with control blood or thought manual change of the factors
- Posseses integrated statistic controls
- Alert when the values are higher or lower than the reference values
- Allows different referent values for man, woman and children
- Ability to work with external printer
- Ability to work with external barcode and opportunity to connect with other laboratory software
