Capillary Photometry technology overcomes the majority of the variables and limitations of the classical sedimentation method
- Stabilized temperature at 37°C
- No dilution
- Use of EDTA tube direct from CBC
- New standardized reading unit
- Automated mixing step
- Latex Controls and Calibrators available
- External Quality Control available
- High reproducibility
- Excellent correlation with the reference method
Alifax technology is classified by CLSI guidelines as an alternative method for ESR (H02-A5 Vol. 31, N.11)
ESR in less than 20 SECONDS
EACH SAMPLE is read 1000 times in 20 seconds
The instrument measures the different intensity of light due to the aggregation of red cells when inflammation is present
“ESR measurements by TEST1 reflect inflammation better than do those by the Westergen method in patients with malignancy, autoimmune disease, or infection”
