DxH SLIDEMAKER STAINER II

Hemasphere and SMS II Technology

INSTRUMENT SPECIFICATIONS

Confident slide interpretations through intelligent slide making and staining

The UniCel DxH Slidemaker Stainer II (SMS II) Coulter Cellular Analysis System redefines workflow by preparing slides automatically from orders received through the laboratory’s LIS. The system delivers reliable results on the first pass, lowering costs, maximizing productivity and increasing quality, so staff members can spend time where it’s needed most—reviewing patient sample requiring their expertise.

Description

TEST SPECIFICATIONS

Ensure reliability

  • Benefit from easy system maintenance with no pinch valves, 80% less tubing than legacy systems require and minimal operator intervention
  • Experience the same reliable specimen transport and sample aspiration technologies as is designed into the DxH 900
  • Obtain a quick overview of operating status, and stain, supply, sample or consumable information at a glance with the Snapshot Screen

Increase workflow efficiency

  • Slides can be created based on rules from the DxH, middleware or LIS
  • Make stain smears easily from:
  • Capped whole blood sample tubes (via automatic cassette or single-tube mode)
  • Open-top tubes (single-tube mode)
  • Pediatric whole blood sample tubes (via automatic cassette or single-tube mode)
  • Select from options, including: smear only, or smear and stain, or stain manually made slides
  • Make up to four slides with a small sample volume of 90 μL and up to 12 slides from a single presentation
  • Conveniently load up to 144 slides

Apply intuitive software for efficient results

  • Track workload and identify slide locations in real time with intelligent basket management software that allows planning for urgent slide reviews
  • Eliminate almost any type of sample barcode label misreads with 2D barcode-scanning technology
  • Customizable print barcodes and other information directly onto slides, allowing easy sample tracking and reducing misidentification through thermal printing technology

Achieve excellent smear quality every time

  • Use proprietary Hemasphere technology to capture the relevant measure of blood adherence to aspiration tubing, with a more reliable and consistent smear, regardless of the blood consistency
  • Customized motion profile accommodates your laboratory’s preferences in smear length or shape
  • Edge of a new slide is used to make the smear, based on user-selectable criteria
  • The Sample Aspiration Module and sample delivery system virtually eliminate any type of slide-to-slide or sample-to-sample carryover

Slidemaking and Staining Options

  • Smear only, smear and stain, stain only

Throughput

  • Prepares up to 140 slides per hour

Aspiration Volumes

  • Open/Closed/Pediatric Vial: 90 μL (up to 4 slides)

Stains and Buffers

  • TruColor Wright Stain and TruColor Wright Buffer
  • TruColor Wright-Giemsa Stain and TruColor Wright-Giemsa Buffer
  • Open system—Software enables user to validate other stains

Technology

  • Proprietary Hemasphere technology characterises blood for optimal slide quality (no reliance on CBC parameters to make smears)

Sample Identification

  • Applied directly to the slide using thermal transfer technology

Power Requirements

  • Standalone system (with SFF computer): 576 W
  • Input: 100–240 VAC and 48–62 Hz
