INTEGRATED REPORTING

• QuickScan Touch Plus on-board with linking to other Helena gel and V8 Nexus CE data
• Myeloma Module provides linking to historic data for rapid review and reporting
• NEW! Composite Key Identifier feature creates a unique identifier from two demographic fields, such as name and date of birth. Useful for tracking outside samples.

 

The New SPIFE Nexus is transformative technology for gel electrophoresis. We’ve taken the expertise gleaned from sixty years in the field, added four years of intentional engineering and created a solidly reliable system that advances automation and ease of use.

 

Based on our full-sized SPIFE agarose gel platform, SPIFE Nexus reimagines all processing steps from sample handling to final results with linking to capillary results as well.
