The HM-JACKarc analyser is a compact bench top system that uses Integrated Sphere Latex Turbidimetry to measure faecal haemoglobin concentration using a highly sensitive latex reagent coated with polyclonal antibodies to human haemoglobin.
The instrument has advanced innovative software with touch screen technology, providing a very easy to use interface. There is minimal depth to the programme menus, ensuring quick access to operating screens.
The system can be utilised by all grades of staff with minimal training. Different levels of user access authority provide security, so that only advanced users can amend settings etc.
HM-JACKarc has been designed to provide rapid results with maximum convenience for the operator.
The ability to load up to 80 samples at any one time provides walk away capability and enhanced productivity. Additional consumables and samples (up to a total maximum of 80) can be added at any time during the testing process.
HM-JACKarc has a time to first result of just 5.6 minutes with additional results every 18 seconds, generating up to 200 results per hour.
The technology and software ensures that the system can be used in either screening or symptomatic assessment applications, since cut-off concentrations can be selected depending upon requirements.
