Description

The Pathfast offers a combination of lock out features for users, calibration, QC and cartridge expiration.  User IDs are password protected, giving piece of mind that unauthorized users cannot operate the system.  The settings are user defined. 

User Features

The system is easy and intuitive to operate. To run patient samples, just follow three simple steps. First, add the sample to the reagent cartridge. The Pathfast requires only 100 uL of sample for each test. Second, insert the cartridge rack into the Analyzer. Third, shut the door and press start. The Pathfast takes care of everything else automatically

QC Features

The Pathfast also provides a lockout feature for calibration, QC, and cartridge expiration.  Tests cannot be reported due to expired quality control, quality control failures, calibration frequency, and reagent expiration. 

Inventory Control

Barcoded reagent strips ensure that expired reagents cannot be run.

Install Base

Several research facilities. No clinical sites to date.
