4.5 Preparation of measuring process
4.5.1 General
The SUPER GL easy / easy+ works with pre-diluted reagents. A prefilled reaction
cup with appropriate capillary tube is required for each analysis.
For measurements on the SUPER GL easy / easy+ you also need the appropriate
biosensor, calibrator cups and appropriate control material.
The analyser measures blood samples in haemolysed form or other material (see
chapter 3.2). The sample must be diluted in the ratio 1 part sample + 50 parts of
the solution supplied in the pre-diluted cups.
The cups are placed on the appropriately labelled spots on the sample plate or in
the cartridge and after insertion of the reaction cup with the patient samples
either individual sample measurement or series measurement is started.
Measuring starts automatically if a sample cup is placed in the sample position
(red segment) on the sample plate. Calibration is carried out if necessary before
measurement.
Cartridges must not be positioned in the analyser.
Series measurement starts automatically if the cartridge is positioned in the
analyser. Only the occupied positions will be processed.
A control reading must be indicated on the touch screen. On instruction, the plate
is turned to the loading position for the control samples. After that, the positions
must be loaded within 15 seconds and 12the measurement started with another
instruction using the touch screen. If this does not happen, the analyser reverts to
the initial state.
Note particularly that to determine hemoglobin, a separate
system of consumable materials consisting of “system
glucose/lactate/hemoglobin system solution” and “system
glucose/lactate/hemoglobin calibrator" must be used.
Incorrectly used consumable material will lead to incorrect
readings.
