The S40 Clinical Analyzer is an automatic wet chemistry system intended for use in clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories that consists of a desktop analyzer, an operation screen that prompts the user for operation input and displays data, a unit cover, and disposable reagent cartridges. The desktop analyzer includes a single pipettor, an incubation rotor, and a multi-wavelength photometer.

The S-Test Glucose Reagent is intended for the quantitative determination of glucose in serum or heparin plasma using the S40 Clinical Analyzer. Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemnia, idiopathic hypoglycemia, and pancreatic islet cell carcinoma. This test is intended for use in clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories. For in vitro diagnostic use only.

The S-Test Total Bilirubin Reagent is intended for the quantitative determination of bilirubin in serum or heparin plasma using the S40 Clinical Analyzer., Measurements of the levels of bilirubin, an organic compound formed during the normal and abnormal destruction of red blood cells, are used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic hematological, and metabolic disorders, including hepatitis and gall bladder block. This test is intended for use in clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories. For in vitro diagnostic use only.

The S-Test Blood Urea Nitrogen Reagent is intended for the quantitative determination of urea nitrogen in serum or heparin plasma using the S40 Clinical Analyzer. Measurements of Urea Nitrogen are used in the diagnosis and treatment of certain renal and metabolic diseases. This test is intended for use in clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories. For in vitro diagnostic use only.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
