DxU Microscopy Series
Urine Microscopy Analyzer
Streamline urinalysis workflow with standardized results and walkaway technology
The DxU Iris Microscopy Series automated urine microscopy analyzer includes the DxU 840m Iris, with a throughput of 70 samples per hour or the DxU 850m Iris, with a throughput of 101 samples per hour. The instruments deliver faster turnaround times and accurately standardizes results by reducing manual intervention.
All
The DxU Microscopy Series is available as either a standalone urine microscopy instrument or it can connect to the DxU 1800c Urine Chemistry Analyzer
to form the fully automated DxU 1800 Fully Automated Urinalysis System.
Using proprietary Digital Flow Morphology technology with Auto Particle Recognition (APR) Software, the DxU Microscopy Series helps to isolate, identify and characterize digital images of particles on the screen to virtually eliminate the need for manual microscopy.
Reduce Manual Reviews
The DxU 1800 System streamlines workflow using industry-leading technology to reduce manual review to 3%.*1 This is achieved using Proprietary Digital Flow Morphology technology with APR software to capture digital images of particles in the urine or in body fluids. Leveraging this technology reduces total sample processing time up to 78% compared to manual microscopy.2†
Confidence in Results
APR Software evaluates the size, shape, contrast and texture of the urine particles and evaluates each digital image to identify and classify the urine particles into one of 12 primary categories. The operator has the option to further manually subclassify particles into 27 additional categories. This offers easy identification of the urine particles and quick verification of particle presence, reducing the need for manual microscopy to identify and confirm the presence of a category. The primary particle categories include:
Auto-release Results
Edit-Free Release technology allows the laboratory to auto-verify true positive urines and true negative urines based on release settings they set up. This feature converts the analyzer into a walkaway unit.
Increase Uptime and Improve Productivity
The iWARE Integrated Urinalysis Software solution, standard on the analyzer, provides onboard validation and result verification into a single step without the need for middleware. The software helps laboratories in the efficient processing of results while reducing time-consuming steps.1‡
Optimize Rinse Routine
The DxU Iris introduces the iQclear, a cleaning aspiration module that helps with additional cleaning of the sample probe.*
