The basic Power Processor is an automated sample handling system which processes sample tubes from the pre-centrifugation, pre-sorting step to presentation of centrifuged and decapped samples into Generic or Personality Racks for specific instruments. The Power Processor can be configured with optional software and hardware to allow processing of sample tubes on Generic Connection Instruments. The Power Processor performs all pre-analytical sample tube preparation, and then sorts the sample tubes directly to Generic Connection Modules where the samples are pipetted by the Generic Connection instrument for testing. After the samples are pipetted, the tubes can route to other instruments for additional testing or to Outlet Racks.

The UniCel DxI 600/800 Access Immunoassay System(s) with laboratory automation connection is a microcomputer-controlled, random and continuous access analyzer that includes an external computer. This computer stores the system user interface (UL) software and allows the operator to interface wit and direct the instrument software. The UniCel DxI 600/800 System(s) uses enzyme immunoassays (utilizing paramnagnetic particle solid phase and chemiluminescent detection). for determination of various analytes, such as Vitamin 1312, Ferritin, Folate and hTSH along with other various enzyme immunoassays assays that may be adaptable to the analyzer depending on the reagent used to induce the enzyme immunmoassay reaction. The UniCel DxI 600/800 System(s) is an in vitro diagnostic device for use in the clinical laboratory.

The Access Ferritin assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent assay for the quantitative determination of ferritin levels in human serum and plasma (heparin) using the Access Immunoassay Systems. Measurements of ferritin aid in the diagnosis of diseases affecting iron metabolism.

The Access Folate assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of folic acid levels in human serum, plasma (heparin) and red blood cells using the Access Imimunoassay Systems. Folic acid measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of megaloblastic anemia.

The Access HYPERsensitive hTSH assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent assay for the quantitative determination of human thyroid-stimulating hormone (thyrotropin, hTSH) levels in human serumn using the Access Immunoassay Systems. Measurements of thyroid stimulating hormone produced by the anterior pituitary are used in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders.

The Access Vitamin B 12 assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent assay for the quantitative determination of vitamin B 12 in human serum and plasma (heparin) using Access Immunoassay Systems. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of anemias of gastrointestinal malabsorption.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
