Thermo Scientific Konelab PRIME 60 and Konelab PRIME 30

Fully automated clinical chemistry systems For medium sized laboratories as a stand-alone instrument For high volume testing as a part of automated workcell Konelab PRIME 60: Capacity up to 600 tests/hour depending on workload Konelab PRIME 30: Capacity up to 300 tests/hour depending on workload

WORKCELL Automation Single entry point without pre-sorting Minimizes the need of aliquots Workload balancing Centralized control over the system

Continuously expanding test range Over 80 carefully validated methods for Enzymes Substrates Electrolytes Specific proteins Drugs of Abuse Tests Therapeutic Drug Monitoring CE marked applications can be complemented with user-definable tests

Product overview Continuous access to samples, reagents and cuvettes On-board capacity of 84 routine samples, 6 STAT samples 39 fixed calibrator & control samples 45 reagents in the refrigerated disk 600 cuvette storage positions in PRIME 30, 2100 in PRIME 60 ISE option: K+, Na+, Cl-, also Li+ and Ca2+ as optional extra Interface to a sample track system

Operational efficiency Automated sample pretreatment feature Automatic sample clot detection Versatile dilution features Pre-dilution possibility Post-dilution with both high and low secondary dilution ratios Calibrator set made automatically from one stock calibrator for most specific proteins Different sample types can be analysed at the same time Important in drug monitoring and therapeutic control Reflex testing Saves time and money when finding out the specific test to be run E.g. A patient is having a severe chest pain and you don’t know if s/he is having acute myocardial infarction or not. There is no point of running lots of expensive tests if the basic test is negative. Reflex testing in Konelab can be programmed so that if the creatine basic test is within a normal range then no more tests have to be run, but if it is elevated then the system runs a more specific test.

Productive, accurate analysis User-safe and contamination free measurement Proven, unique, single use 12-cell cuvette Cost-effective due to low reaction volume Only 100 to 250 l Typically 120 - 200 l Flexibility and long walk-away time Cuvette storage enables up to 4 hours walk-away time Continuous loading access without interrupting testing

Advanced design to facilitate routine work Integrated workstation with touch screen Enables a working posture with less physical strain Ideal for limited space Intuitive graphical user-interface Provides fast guidance Makes the analyser easy to use Available in more than 15 language versions

Safe sample handling Error free sample handling Sample tubes Automatic sample identification, direct barcode reading and cup/ tube recognition Bidirectional LIS interface for quick data transfer Sample tubes 5, 7 and 10 ml tubes 0.5 and 2 ml sample cups Calibrators and controls Cooled positions Possibility to load also into segments

Automated sample pretreatment Saves the operator time, e.g. by automating hemolyzation in HbA1c measurement Improves quality by minimizing operator variation Dedicated sample segment for whole blood samples For one segment hemolyzation takes about 10 min, total turnaround time about 30 min

KUSTI - optional module for point-in-space dispensing Making automatically an aliquot from the primary sample Equipped with a 92-positions segment While part of automated workcell requested tests processed autonomously Sample is sent further to the next analyzer Minimizing delays on the sample conveyor Manual sample loading using segments possible at the same time

Automatic clot detection To secure result integrity Based on pressure differential technology Both in sample and KUSTI dispensers The pressure system is calibrated By making a series of air aspirations, takes appr. 5 seconds, no extra solutions needed At start up with sample dispenser At every water wash with KUSTI Operator is alarmed about clot All requests are cancelled for that sample Extra wash is performed for needles

Clot detection in sample dispenser Pressure signals of succesful aspirations on sample dispenser The pressure dives in an aspiration and returns through a maximum to the rest level 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 1 21 41 61 81 101 121 141 161 181 201 OK Clot The clot message is sent if in aspiration maximum fails to reach the rest level or if the end pressure of the curve remains too far below the rest level

Clot detection in KUSTI dispenser Pressure signals of a succesful aspiration In each sub-aspiration the pressure signal dives to a certain depth, but returns to the rest level between aspirations The clot message is sent if in aspiration the pressure dives deeper than in a successful aspiration

Convenient reagent handling Continuous monitoring possibility Flagging of expired reagents Determination of vial volume Estimation of reagent sufficiency Automatic bottle change-over increases the walk-away time Possibility to run QC with every new bottle Used reagent lots can be archived

Simultaneous electrolyte measurement Direct measurement method used in Konelab Generally considered the most accurate ISE method Serum, plasma and urine samples Direct or by manually pre-diluted urine sample Micro volume electrodes for even smaller sample volumes Sample volume of only 50 l is sufficient for Na+, K+ and Cl- Additionally 6 l if Li+, Ca 2+ or pH is required Maintenance-free electrodes Delivered ready-to-use

Proactive support Minimal user maintenance tasks Maintenance contracts About 5 min daily Start up and Stand by procedures Maintenance contracts 6 and 12 months programs

Proven technology and experience Konelab analyzers are supported with Customized installation Product training Product & Application support After-sales support Maintenance contracts Technical service

Confirmed quality Quality system is certified according to the ISO 9001:2000 standard extended with the EN ISO 13485:2003 Konelab Analyzer systems comply with the requirements of the In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Directive (IVDMDD)

Key benefits of Konelab analyzers Easy to use Clearly laid out, simple to navigate user interface Automation and analyst efficiency Once loaded, the analyzer will run without the assistance of the analyst Automatic dilution of an over range sample Automated sample pretreatment feature Reflex test possibility Clot detection Different types of samples can be analysed at the same time Important in drug monitoring and therapeutic control Productivity Low reagent volumes -> low cost per test, important in expensive tests Quick daily start up Minimal maintenance User-safe and contamination free analysis Disposable cuvettes

Key benefits of Konelab analyzers Carefully selected methods and applications Over 150 CE-marked reagents Optimized kits serve laboratories of all sizes Liquid stable and ready for use System-specific multi-calibrators and controls Flexible software Easy method set-up Special applications to be validated by the customer or distributor Direct electrolyte measurement The most accurate ISE method Maintenance-free electrodes delivered ready-to-use Full application and technical support
