SECTION 1 SPECIFICATIONS
1.1 OUTLINE
The Sysmex CA-500 Automated Blood Coagulation Analyzer obtains clotting times by detecting changes in
scattered light intensity reflected from a diluted sample with buffer reagent which are illuminated by red light of
LED.
Incubated plasma taken from the centrifuged sample blood is rapidly mixed with warmed reagent and
coagulation is performed and analyzed. Its result can be automatically displayed and printed. In accordance
with the way of coagulation the chromogenics substrate method and the method of immunoassay are optionally
available on this unit .
