Sysmex Demonstrates Hematology, Urinalysis and Flow Cytometry Solutions at AACC 2022

At the Sysmex America booth, the company is featuring the XN-Series of automated hematology analyzers with new complimentary products, including the XN-9100 automated hematology analyzer which is a scalable, modular automation system that offers efficiencies to meet the needs of varying lab sizes, specialties and complexity levels. With automated workload balancing, hands-free rerun/reflex testing and fully automated reflexive slide preparation, labs can better manage workload and staffing challenges. The DI-60 Automated Digital Cell Morphology Analyzer connects directly to the XN-9100 analyzer or can be configured with the SP-50 Slidemaker/Stainer. Also, on display for the first time will be the BT-50 Barcode Terminal and Start yard with “touch-free” quality control (QC) workflow. For labs with confined space, the TA-01 Automated Tube Archiver and the TS-01 Automated Tube Sorter provide increased automation in a smaller footprint.

For physicians’ offices and clinics, Sysmex America is showcasing the XN-L automated hematology analyzer series with BeyondCare Quality Monitor (BCQM) that has been designed to simplify operation, daily maintenance, QC and calibration. With a low-WBC application, the XN-L improves the reliability of analysis. In addition, the XN-L provides a six-part differential (including IG # enumeration and IG %) for each sample. For low-volume hematology labs, the company will be highlighting the CellaVision DC-1 analyzer which automates and simplifies performing blood cell differentials while providing labs with high-quality digital imaging for improved efficiency, quality, connectivity and staff proficiency. Laboratories with space limitations may use the CellaVision DC-1 as a standalone or networked installation.

In the field of urinalysis, Sysmex America is exhibiting the UN-Series automated urinalysis solution with expanded chemistry functionality. The fully scalable UN-Series automated urinalysis solution offers the world’s first bi-directional urinalysis connection for Total Lab Automation (TLA). Connecting the UN-Series to Inpeco’s FlexLab automation system enables a solution tailored to your individual workflow needs and eliminates manual touch-points with urine samples. The UN-Series offers a full spectrum of urinalysis screening parameters with a throughput of up to 240 samples/hour. The UN-Series offers modular instrument configurations for flexibility in managing a wide range of workflow needs for growing labs. In addition, customizable reflex rules ensure further urinalysis workflow enhancement and greater levels of automation.

In the area of flow cytometry, Sysmex America is showcasing the highly automated XF-1600 Flow Cytometer which provides laboratories with improved flexibility and efficiency for a wide range of applications. In addition to seamless integration into the laboratory’s workflow, the XF-1600 works in tandem with Sysmex America’s PS-10 Sample Preparation System to automate the entire process of antibody staining, incubation and flow cytometry analysis - ensuring a new level of confidence in the results produced. Sysmex America is also displaying the highly automated and flexible PS-10 sample preparation system that is designed for complex laboratory-developed tests and routine flow cytometry applications, and provides clinical laboratories with a new level of workflow efficiency and confidence in accurate results.

“An estimated 3.3 billion in vitro diagnostic tests are run every year in the United States to detect the presence or risk of certain diseases,” said Andy Hay, chief executive officer of Sysmex America. “As the testing demand continues to grow with factors such as aging of the population and increases in chronic and infectious disease, laboratories across North America will continue to rely on Sysmex America for highly automated solutions that provide workflow efficiency levels to meet shorter turnaround times with accuracy.”
