Fully automated immunohematology analyzer OMNYS

automatedfor clinical diagnosticmultiplexing

Overview
Omnys is an automated multiplex blood testing solution by Innobiochips enabling high‑resolution characterization of blood samples: Standard ABO/D typing, serotyping, phenotyping, extended phenotyping and Indirect Antiglobulin Test (IAT). Designed for integration into existing transfusion and immunohematology workflows, Omnys combines minimal sample volumes with high throughput and compatibility with current reagents and protocols.

Key benefits

• Up to 4× lab productivity: complete automated characterization using 4–6 wells versus 16 wells with card‑gel technology.
• Reduced laboratory waste and plastic consumption, lowering disposal and transport costs.
• Extended sample characterization without extra reagent cost: complementary data and embedded controls on each foil.
• 100% compatibility with standard reagents, controls and buffers; integrates into established workflows.

Solution components

• Fully automated high‑throughput batch test system: pipetor, 3 centrifuges and image acquisition module.
• Automation specifics: dual pipetting arms, three centrifuges, one image capture module.
• High‑resolution versatile 8‑well foils: up to 20 high‑definition tests per well and per sample.
• Foil test types: ABO/D typing, Rh/Kell phenotyping, Extended phenotyping and IAT.
• User‑centric software for image analysis, data management, QC and instrument/sample tracking (OMNYS_Analyser).
• Ready‑to‑use reagents and buffers compatible with routine controls (O_Typing, O_Rev.Typing, O_IAT, O_IAT HD).

Beta testing
Program opening early 2025: Innobiochips runs a six‑month beta to validate Omnys in transfusion workflows. Program includes:

• On‑site installation of the Omnys solution.
• Training on sample preparation, operation and result interpretation.
• User support throughout the trial period.
