It is the first product of its kind that has been awarded this designation by AABB’s Standards-Compliant Product Program, indicating that the ORTHO Workstation meets AABB standards in terms of product quality and service.
Built around proven column agglutination technology, the ORTHO Workstation is a 2-in-1 blood testing system, combining a centrifuge and incubator in a footprint of about two square feet. The ORTHO Workstation works with the ORTHO OPTIX™ Reader and creates precision and accuracy that are critical in labs of every size. The ORTHO Workstation is simple to operate, with language-neutral icons and enhanced alarm systems.
In today’s lab environment, staff are being asked to do more, often with the same or fewer resources. ORTHO Workstation makes it easier to work error-free, thanks to features such as incubator temperature monitoring (with visual indicator), a unique beeping pattern to indicate cycle completion and error code intelligence for troubleshooting.
