BeckmanCoulter公司推出第一套连接实验室信息系统

 
第一种能够为实验室信息系统(LIS)提供连通性的血细胞计数系统，综合了Beckman Coulter(Fullerton, CA, USA)公司的FC 500流式细胞仪和该公司的新型FP 1000样本处理系统。

这套系统为高通量临床参考实验室而设计，综合细胞计数解决方案(ICS)的流线型工作流程和整个测试全程跟踪样本--从收到样本和准备，到数据获取和分析，以及出具报告。这可以帮助实验室对细胞计数检测过程进行标准化，增加效率、精确性和操作者的安全。

流式细胞仪是一种广泛应用的血细胞分类自动检测工具。通常用于体外检测鉴别和枚举疾病指标的细胞亚群，例如艾滋病、白血病和淋巴瘤。这些指标能够帮助监测疾病进程和治疗效果。

“这种新的解决方案代表了我们公司战略的核心--将用户操作过程简单化和自动化，”Beckman Coulter公司翻译解决方案事务中心副总裁Bonnie Anderson说，“通过引入完全整合的细胞计数解决方案，我们进一步巩固了我们公司在流式细胞仪自动化领域的领导者地位。”

Cytometry System With LIS Connectivity
 
The first cytometry system to offer laboratory information system (LIS) connectivity combines the FC 500 flow cytometer of Beckman Coulter (Fullerton, CA, USA) with the company’s new FP 1000 sample processing system.

Designed for high-volume clinical reference laboratories, this integrated cytometry solution (ICS) streamlines workflow and tracks samples throughout the testing process--from receipt and preparation, to acquisition and analysis of data, to reporting results. This is an approach that helps laboratories to standardize their flow cytometry testing process, increasing efficiency, accuracy, and operator safety.

Flow cytometry is widely used to provide an automated analysis of blood cell populations. It is commonly used in in vitro diagnostics to identify and enumerate cell populations that are key indicators of diseases, such as HIV, leukemia, and lymphoma. These indicators help monitor disease progression and therapy effectiveness.

“This new solution reflects the essence of our company’s strategy--to simplify and automate customer processes to improve productivity,” said Bonnie Anderson, vice president of Beckman Coulter’s Translational Solutions business center. “Through the introduction of a fully integrated cytometry solution, we are further securing our position as a leader in flow cytometry automation.”
