The Thermo Scientific Konelab PRIME 30 is designed for
enzyme, substrate, electrolyte and specific proteins analysis as well as for
drugs of abuse tests and therapeutic drug monitoring.
Product Detail
The Thermo Scientific Konelab PRIME 30 is a cost-effective choice for
medium-sized laboratories. It can be used as a stand-alone instrument or
integrated as part of a laboratory automation system. New design of the Thermo
Scientific Konelab PRIME 30 includes integrated workstation which makes the
analyzer an ideal choice for laboratories with limited space. Touch screen, in
addition to an intuitive graphical user interface in more than 15 languages,
make data management convenient and fast. New features, like sample clot
detection, improve operational efficiency and result integrity. The unique
low-volume cuvette design ensures small reagent consumption and low running
costs.
