HORIBA UK Ltd, Medical Division, specialists in automated in vitro diagnostic systems for haematology and chemistry analysis, will be exhibiting the Microsemi CRP haematology analyser at the Pulse Live event taking place at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel from 30 April – 1 May.

The Microsemi CRP haematology analyser was developed by HORIBA Medical in Japan, ‘emi’ means ‘smile’ in Japanese and stands for easy to use, maintenance free and intelligent. This compact, easy-to-use addition to the Micros range simultaneously provides a complete blood count (CBC) and C-reactive protein (CRP) from just 18 μl of blood - all in just 4 minutes.

Delegates at the two day event, including GPs, practice managers and primary care managers, will be able to see for themselves how the Microsemi CRP provides information of great clinical value enabling quicker and more accurate medical decisions to ultimately reduce costs and improve the patient pathway.

Its rapid and accurate CRP analysis, coupled with a blood count, allows the screening of patient samples to detect the presence of inflammation caused by bacterial infections, or other treatable inflammatory disease. Measurement is possible immediately after blood sample collection, making this analyser the ideal choice for urgent testing situations. The Microsemi CRP can also be used to assess infection and inflammatory conditions that require progressive observation.

The Pulse Live event will also provide GPs with opportunities to hone their skills in practice business and finance, find out the latest in key clinical topics and share best practice across a variety of issues.

HematologyIn Haematology / Hematology, complete blood cell counts (or full blood counts) are obtained using automated blood count analyzers to enumerate blood cell types.  Hematology also encompasses haemostasis and coagulation, thrombophilia and hemophilia, plasma viscosity and ESR analysis, hemoglobinopathies, cell morphology and haematinic measurement.Clinical MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.

Blood samples can be tested for a number of different reasons such as diagnosis, glucose levels, cholesterol and drug testing.Inflammatory DiseasesInfectious DiseasesInfectious diseases are caused by pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Effective detection, prevention, and treatment are crucial to control outbreaks and improve public health. Diagnostic tools, vaccines, and antimicrobial treatments are essential components of managing these diseases. Research into emerging pathogens and resistance patterns continues to evolve.
