AFMS Partners with Sebia to provide Hematology Laboratories with reliable Hb Electrophoresis instrumentation allowing rapid and accurate measurement for major hemoglobin disorders.
The Sebia capillary electrophoresis instruments, CAPILLARYS and MINICAP, have been developed to provide complete automation, with fast separation at high resolution. Sebia CAPILLARYS is currently the most widely used capillary electrophoresis system in clinical laboratories worldwide.
Hemoglobin electrophoresis is a well-established technique routinely used in clinical laboratories to screen patient samples for hemoglobinopathies (hemoglobin variants and thalassemias).
The MINICAP FLEX-PIERCING instrument offers flexibility for small size laboratories. The fully automated instrument meets the needs of the laboratory while providing clear-cut and precise separations utilizing capillary electrophoresis technology.
7 capillary electrophoresis techniques available on this compact platform.
The CAPILLARYS 3 OCTA offers a broad assay menu in myeloma, diabetes, hemoglobinopathies and chronic alcohol abuse. CAPILLARYS 3 can run up to 7 techniques, automated technique changes are enabled via pre-set switch racks, which allows users to load up to 120 samples with diverse tests simultaneously.
The CAPILLARYS 3 TERA MC configuration allows the combination of one to three CAPILLARYS 3 TERA instruments to a Sebia loader, with a loading capacity of 528 samples in one row. The system can be fed continuously with additional racks, and the reagent management system allows ad-hoc reagent addition at any time, without interruption.
HYDRASYS 2 SCAN FOCUSINGHYDRASYS 2 SCAN FOCUSING is the “all-in-one” analyser for gel electrophoresis. The system offers analytical solutions for a high level of performance, matching clinical diagnostic requirements.
The analyser carries out electrophoresis steps, from sample application to final reading. It is a fast and easy to operate instrument, offering a comprehensive test menu of more than 60 HYDRAGEL programs.
Every day more than one hundred thousand newborns are screened worldwide for metabolic and endocrine disorders. Early screening has proven to be effective in improving the lives of babies by providing appropriate treatment and follow-up.
Sebia CAPILLARYS 3 DBS is the latest generation of instrument dedicated to newborn hemoglobin screening, offering a smooth workflow and excellent analytical features.
The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS instrument is an automated, multitasking capillary electrophoresis instrument using 12 capillaries for multiple simultaneous hands-free electrophoretic separations at high throughput.
The CAPILLARYS 3 DBS enables the analysis of samples from microplate wells and provides fully automated electrophoresis separation, from the dried blood spots on filter paper (Guthrie card) through to the final electrophoretic pattern: sample identification, sample dilution, sample incubation, capillary washing, sample injection into the capillaries, migration, detection, processing of the results, and transfer over the computer interface.
This instrument is an interesting alternative to commonly used technology such as IEF and HPLC for all the laboratories involved in newborn hemoglobin screening, bringing seamless sample traceability, high quality results, and high throughput while offering a reduced hands-on time.
