Good results, but hate the maintenance.

Accurate results. Saves a lot of my time. Thanks to developer.
Application Area:Analyze blood enzymes
"This one is best machine I have used in my job career as it is sensitive unlike other companies machines. It can work at multiple temperatures. Secondly, it is easy to handle. Their after sale service is very satisfying I would say. For large setups like hospitals or diagnostic centers where average sample rate is higher than 200, it's very cost effective."

Great instrument!
Application Area:Analyze serum proteins in human diseases for biomarker discovery
"The analyzer can run 700 tests per hour. Has reduced my hands on time to minimum. The main plus of working with this is that it is a clinically approved instrument so all the discoveries can be taken directly to clinics. On top of this the reproducibility and traceability are dependable. It is robustly built, no breakdowns or anything like that. Service and maintenance from Beckman is top notch."

Good analyzer, but improve on the HgA1C testing
Application Area:Hemoglobin A1C Testing
"AU 480 analyzer is good, but when it comes to testing HgA1C, it becomes such a difficult analyzer. As a matter of fact, I have had some instances where it produced a different result, making it unreliable for A1C testing. Again, adding the hemolyzing reagent makes it very troubling for me. I wish patient specimen could be tested without the hemolyzing reagent. Other than the concern above, the analyzer is super!"

With a throughput of 400 photometric tests per hour (up to 800 with electrolytes) and an on board capacity of 63 different analytes the AU480 Chemistry System is the ideal main analyzer for small to medium sized laboratories.
The AU480 Chemistry System can also fit as a special chemistry or STAT analyzer in large laboratories as well.
TheAU480 Chemistry System maintains many features of its predecessor the AU400 that made it successful; long life electrodes, low maintenance and superior spot photometer technology.
AU480 Chemistry System Features:
- New and intuitive graphical user interface.
- Plug and play calibration via 2-D barcode.
- Efficiency - Reagent reduction and Low consumable usage.
- Microsampling ideal for pediatrics.
- Continuous loading sample feeder.
- Barcoded racks to define different sample materials.
- 80 samples on board at any time.
- Automatic repeat and reflex capability.
- Dedicated STAT rotor with 22 positions and integrated barcode reader.
- Full STAT capabilities during routine operation.
- 76 refrigerated reagent compartments.
- Cuvette wheel with low maintenance.
- Best in class ISE.
