With true family commonality and enhanced system and assay dynamics, the ARCHITECT family allows for integration without compromise.
Equivalent patient results
Identical technology, reagents and assay protocols generate patient results that are equivalent from system to system.
Identical software
ARCHITECT offers identical software across the entire family of instrumentation to streamline training and enhance ease of use.
Universal architect sample carrier
A universal sample carrier and common reagent cartridges are utilized across ARCHITECT systems.
The ARCHITECT i4000SR is a multi-module system that provides enhanced productivity for laboratories with high-volume immunoassay demands.
