Biosen C-Line: Glucose and lactate measurement

Description

The Biosen C-Line analyzer is a bench-top instrument for the quantitative determination of glucose and lactate concentrations. It employs a dedicated chip sensor technology to deliver rapid results, typically within 20 to 45 seconds. The system can be configured as a single-channel device measuring only glucose, or as a dual-channel unit for simultaneous glucose and lactate analysis. It requires a small sample volume of 20 µL and is compatible with whole blood, plasma, or serum samples. For data management, the analyzer offers connectivity via RS-232, USB, and encrypted Ethernet ports, facilitating integration with laboratory information systems (LIS) or middleware like EKF Link. Standard instrument features often include a color touchscreen interface and onboard data storage. The system demonstrates high precision, with a reported coefficient of variation of less than 3%.
