By analyzing the biochemical composition of body fluids, clinical chemists help detect diseases early, monitor treatment effectiveness, and manage chronic conditions, ultimately improving patient outcomes. Common tests in clinical chemistry include blood glucose measurement, liver function tests, electrolyte panels, enzyme assays as well as lipid profiles. Diatron provides ready solutions based on the spectrophotometry with the use of liquid reagents, which is an analytical method used to measure the amount of light that a sample absorbs. The technique is based on the principle that different compounds absorb light at specific wavelengths. A spectrophotometer is the instrument used in this technique, and it works by passing a beam of light through a sample and measuring the intensity of light before and after it passes through the sample. Clinical chemistry laboratories spectrophotometers to detect and quantify chemical substances, providing crucial data for diagnosing conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, liver disorders, and more.

P500, P700 and P780

Close-up of a Clinical Chemistry closed system by Diatron

Diatron offers a Clinical Chemistry closed system for small to medium labs. The system includes reagents (partnership with Meidcon Hellas, Greece), solutions and consumables. The system is fully validated therefore the performance is guaranteed. Diatron’ instruments operating cost is low what makes it attractive on the market The low costs are driven by: 

  • low solutions and water consumption

  • easy preventive maintenance

  • long life of reaction cuvettes

  • guaranteed number of tests/kit

  • extended calibration and onboard stability

ADVANTAGES

Diatron’ Clinical Chemistry portfolio offers the following advantages:

  • One family – all systems share the same reagents, method definitions, solutions, consumable and parts. 

  • Standardized results – All systems are comparable in terms of standardization of the measurements, they are proven to generate equal results. 

  • Low operating costs – All systems are designed to generate low consumption of water and system solutions. 

  • Same User Workflow Structure – P500 and 700 share the same SW, while the P780 SW follows the structure and logic of P500/700, to allow the end user quick and easy learning path. 

  • Simplified supply logistics and administration – Diatron is a One Stop Shop

  • Reagent menu – Diatron partnerships with Medicon Hellas to deliver a broad range of quality and high performance assays specially formulated for Pictus platforms. 

Diatron products are FDA and IVDR cleared (except for P780 as it is not launched yet).
