Largest Assay Pair Volume = Largest defined assay volume ordered on
the A-Line + Largest defined assay volume ordered on the B-Line.
*All Abbott assay applications have a defined sample volume of 20 µL
or less. This volume requirement would only apply if non-Abbott assay
applications are defined with a sample volume greater than 20 µL.
For example, the minimum sample required for a panel including the
following assays (Urea, Crea, Glu, Na, K, Cl, CO
2
) is:
60 µL + 31.4 µL (combined sample volume) = 91.4 µL
NOTE: For individual assay sample volume requirements, refer
to the parameters in the assay-specific Package Inserts.
• Verify that samples are free of foam, bubbles, fibrin, or particulate
matter.
• Use Cup/Tube Adapters for 13 mm tubes and sample cups.
NOTE: Use cup / tube adapters for 13 mm tubes and
sample cups. If sample cups are loaded without adapters,
the sample cup is not detected and the patient sample is not
run.
NOTE: Use of AEROSET sample cups is required to
adequately accommodate the AEROSET System sample
probe.
CAUTION: Do not run samples if these conditions are not
met. Patient results could be affected.
