Ease of use and safety
The Thrombomate XRA has an intuitive user interface. The operator does not need any special knowledge in aggregometry. The minimisation and automation of steps compared to the manual method leads to a massive reduction of potential errors. Thanks to positive sample and reagent identification via bar-coded reagent trays and thanks to the pre-set specific concentrations, aggregometry can be performed effortlessly in any laboratory around the clock.
Measuring principle
Light transmission aggregometry (LTA) is considered the gold standard in platelet function testing. Patented special cuvettes for generating shear forces with the help of a steel ball ensure reliable results in platelet function diagnostics. Self-regulating bichromatic optical detection guarantees high-quality results even with difficult samples (haemolytic, icteric, lipaemic).
Standardisation
Samples of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) are automatically homogenised by inverting the vessel under constant conditions. After pipetting with cap-piercing (sampling from sealed tubes), all further processes take place in compliance with exact processing cycles. The cartridges with standardised reagents according to ISTH recommendations ensure comparability between different laboratories
Expert opinion
Here's what our experts say about the product
The fully automated walk-away system can process 25 tests during one hour. The hands-on time is reduced compared to the semi-automatic system and even non-specialist staff can operate the Thrombomate XRA. This leads to possible cost savings and enables 24/7 availability where previously testing could only be offered during routine laboratory hoursExpert since 2001
