ELISA STAR Standard Solutions Fully automated ELISA processor
Bench Top Compact solution for automated ELISA processing The new ELISA STAR bench top instrument is a fully automated ELISA processor which processes up to 15 microplates per day shift. Due to its open concept and user-friendly software, a wide variety of assays can be processed. The ELISA STAR is the ideal instrument for blood screening and clinical applications as well as for veterinary laboratories. Integrated design: the independent dual arm concept ensures a parallel processing for sample pipetting and plate processing. For state-of-the-art liquid handling, all pipetting channels are equipped with Liquid Level Detection (LLD) based on the proven STAR instrument technology. HAMILTON s Autoload technology for barcode identification of all plates, sample and controll tubes and troughs containing liquids like diluents, reagents, etc. Internal plate transportation performed by CO-RE Gripper and iswap Integrated incubators, washer, reader and plate shaker for a complete ELISA workflow Easy to use system XX The instrument calculates and manages all consumables and disposables for each run XX Graphical display of workload with indication of all user interaction XX System generates a standard output file with extinction (optical density) of your samples, controls or standards X X Optional: data management software which calculates final results
Easy to use software Design your own plate layout and follow the software wizard to program your assay including replicas, pre-dilution and worklist handling Create a run using only a single assay or combine assays into batches Software displays run overview (scheduler) with focus on user interactions
In Vitro Diagnostics Completely IVD conform The ELISA STAR is an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device and fully complies with the IVD directive (CE-IVD 98/79) Go IVD conform with HAMILTON: total process control Seamless tracking of sample IDs IVD conform Configurable user access rights Monitoring of all plate transport steps Total Aspiration and Dispense Monitoring (TADM)
