i3LAB

Overview

i3LAB: A 3-diff hematology analyzer with closed vial sampling designed for labs

The i3LAB is a smart, 3-part differential hematology analyzer with closed vial sampling with an innovative and handy design. The i3LAB provides a 22-parameter complete blood cell count report that includes WBC, RBC, and PLT histograms, using the volumetric impedance method for the detection of red blood cells (RBC) and white blood cells (WBC) and photometric method for the measurement of hemoglobin (HGB) levels.

The i3LAB was primarily developed to be used in laboratory environments as it provides an 80 tests/hour throughput and is compatible with the Norma Autoloader to offer effective support in the everyday work of the laboratory personnel. It does not only have a compact size, low reagent consumption – using only two reagents – and small sampling volume processing, but it also doesn’t require any weekly maintenance action from the user.

Norma-iRP Reagent Packs

Norma-iRP Reagent Packs

The Norma-iRP Reagent Pack is an easy-to-use, disposable, compact set that contains all the reagents that are required for the use of the Norma hematology analyzers. The analyzer’s onboard camera or barcode reader identifies the pack by reading the QR code printed on the pack’s Instruction for Use.

Features & Benefits

  • Packaged for compatibility – you have the required volume of each solution on board, no more, no less. All reagents will be fully consumed at the same time.
  • The pack provides you with a guaranteed number of test cycles. The remaining number of tests is tracked and displayed by the analyzer.
  • No need to attach the messy and dirty tubing set to various reagent bottles and waste container when they have to be replaced.
  • Clean and safe – no biohazard.
  • The pack is airtight, therefore the open box stability of the reagents is significantly longer.
