Medica's EasySampler
provides automated batch sampling of serum, plasma, or diluted urine
with the EasyLyte Na/K, Na/K/Cl, and Na/K/Li electrolyte analyzers
(urine analysis not applicable for lithium). EasySampler features
a 24-position sample tray that includes 21 sample positions, one stat
position, and two quality-control positions. The sample tray holds
either 500 microliter or 2.0 mL sample cups.
When coupled with an EasySampler, the EasyLyte
prints the results for each sample loaded in the sample tray, indicating
tray and position number as well as date and time of analysis. Analysis
of samples is repeated automatically if electrolyte values fall outside
preset ranges (ranges are adjustable as described in the EasyLyte
Operator's Manual). The operator can also request a repeat analysis
of each sample falling outside preset ranges under the USER OPTIONS
section of the EasyLyte menu. Sample analysis data is stored in EasyLyte memory for later retrieval.
The EasySampler incorporates an optical safety
interlock that detects any obstruction (such as the operator's hand)
between the sample probe and the sample cup. Sample probe and tray
motion will cease and a beep will sound until the obstruction is removed.
