The Atellica® CI Analyzer is an automated, integrated system designed to perform in vitro diagnostic tests on clinical specimens. The system is intended for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of various body fluids, using photometric, turbidimetric, chemiluminescent, and integrated ionselective electrode technology for clinical use.

The Atellica® IM Thyroid Stimulating Hormone 3‑Ultra (TSH3‑UL) assay is for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH, thyrotropin) in human serum and plasma (EDTA and lithium heparin) using the Atellica® CI Analyzer. Measurements of thyroid stimulating hormone produced by the anterior pituitary are used in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders.

The Atellica® CH Albumin BCP (AlbP) assay is for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative measurement of albumin in human serum and plasma (lithium heparin, potassium EDTA) using the Atellica® CI Analyzer. Albumin measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases primarily involving the liver or kidneys.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
