Application Area: Rapid Complete Metabolic Panel
"The Abaxis Piccolo Xpress is a great rapid laboratory tool that we use in our lab and patient clinic! We mainly use it for the CMP panel but it can do quite a bit and with a small sample of blood, too. It is very easy to use so it makes training staff quick and easy. When we first got it we had a small issue with doing the first QC and the Abaxis staff was very helpful!"
