The impact of blood sample pretreatment on automatic biochemistry analyzers

release time:2021-11-10 11:17:00

In the previous article, we learned about the necessity of blood sample pre-treatment for chemiluminescent immunoassay analyzers. Mentioning the importance of blood sample pre-treatment in the use of the instrument has to be mentioned is the fully automated biochemistry analyzer. In the vast majority of medical laboratories, laboratory departments in the largest volume of samples, but also blood samples are the main instrument is a fully automatic biochemical analyzer.

Speaking of biochemical testing, for enzyme student chemistry testing, electrolytes and other hemolysis, lipidemia, jaundice samples are of great impact(Interference of abnormal samples with biochemical assays). Therefore, in the use of fully automated biochemical analyzers, the pre-treatment of blood samples is essential both from the test results and testing efficiency.

Inadequate sample size of the specimen also affects the sampling of the automatic biochemistry analyzer and the performance of the instrument. It should also be poured into the corresponding microtest cup before testing.

Both pre-analytical quality control, as well as in-analytical and post-analytical quality control, are strictly controlled throughout the medical testing process. The taking of blood samples is beyond the direct control of the testing personnel. However, the pre-processing work after entering the laboratory must be performed in strict accordance with the standards. This will better ensure the quality of the test data and maintain the stability of the testing process.

The Seamaty portable, fully automated dry biochemistry analyzer has a built-in centrifugation function. The analyzer can automatically separate anticoagulated whole blood from plasma for testing. Anticoagulated samples should use lithium heparin anticoagulant which has less impact on biochemical tests.
