GLP systems Track:

The GLP systems Track is a modular laboratory automation system designed to automate pre-analytical and post-analytical processing, including sample handling, in order to automate sample processing in clinical laboratories. The system consolidates multiple analytical instruments into a unified workflow.

Alinity i Total β-hCG Reagent Kit:

The Alinity i Total β-hCG assay is a chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) used for the quantitative and qualitative determination of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) in human serum and plasma for the early detection of pregnancy on the Alinity i analyzer.

Alinity i system:

The Alinity i System is a fully automated analyzer allowing random and continuous access, as well as priority and automated retest processing using chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) technology. CMIA technology is used to determine the presence of antigens, antibodies, and analytes in samples.

Alinity ci-series:

The Alinity ci-series is intended for in vitro diagnostic use only.

The Alinity ci-series is a System comprised of individual Alinity i or Alinity c analyzers/processing modules that may be arranged into individual or multimodule configurations including up to four Alinity i processing modules, up to four Alinity c processing modules, or a combination of up to four of Alinity i and Alinity c processing modules with a shared system control module to form a single workstation.

The Alinity c System is a fully automated, random/continuous access, clinical chemistry analyzer intended for the in vitro determination of analytes in body fluids.

The Alinity i System is a fully automated analyzer allowing random and continuous access, as well as priority and automated retest processing using chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) technology. CMIA technology is used to determine the presence of antigens, antibodies, and analytes in samples.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
