Semi-automatic urine sediment analyzer sediMAX LITE

for researchbenchtopmicroscope

Product overview
sediMAX LITE is a professional semi-automated urine microscopy analyzer that acquires whole-field microscopic images of urine sediment and automatically classifies and counts sediment particles. The system applies the traditional gold-standard microscopy approach while removing the most time-consuming and operator-dependent steps of manual microscopy, and can be used as a backup to fully automated sediment analyzers.

Analyzable samples

• Urine
• Cerebrospinal fluid (liquor)
• Ascitic fluid
• Pleural fluid
• Pericardial fluid
• Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)*

Notes
*Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Key features

• Produces whole-field microscopic images of urine sediment
• Automatic classification and counting of urine sediment particles from recorded images
• Retains traditional microscopy method while eliminating time-consuming manual steps
• Capable of analyzing multiple body fluids beyond urine (see analyzable samples)
• Manual microscopy mode: real-time view of any cuvette field (suitable for motile microorganisms)
• Intuitive operation with minimal training required
• Suitable for small laboratories and emergency departments
• Cost-effective: no liquid reagents or calibrators required
• Flexible software for data management, result validation and reporting
