Diatron Pictus 700 clinical chemistry analyser

The Diatron Group has developed its latest clinical chemistry analyser, the Pictus 700, as a fully automated, random-access system, suitable for the modern laboratory.

The rapid and reliable analyser can carry out up to 720 tests per hour on sample volumes ranging from 0.2 to 100 μL by employing continuous sample loading in a 95-position patient sample tray, with two separate reagent trays. Other features of the product include its 72 reagent channels, an independent cooling system, liquid-level sensing and clot detection, plus end-point and kinetic detection modes.

Unlike other large floor-standing analysers, the product possesses an efficient cuvette washing system that requires low water consumption (3 L/h) and does not need connection to the laboratory plumbing system. The user-friendly software enables strict quality control and an unlimited number of samples can be loaded through the in-built laboratory information system (LIS).
