BD FACSDuetTM Sample Preparation System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System is designed to enhance laboratory efficiency, standardization, and flexibility. It integrates with the BD FACSLyric™ flow cytometer to provide a comprehensive, automated sample-to-answer solution.
Efficiency: The system significantly reduces process time and hands-on time, with up to a 99% reduction in error-prone steps. It allows for handling multiple carriers and worklists simultaneously, increasing specimen throughput and reducing manual labor.
Standardization: Preprogrammed preparation methods and automated specimen and reagent pipetting ensure consistent workflows and reduce variability. The system offers complete traceability of specimens, samples, and reagents, minimizing errors and enhancing accuracy.
Flexibility: The modular design allows for custom preparation methods and compatibility with various reagent vial sizes and manufacturers. It supports up to 46 reagents on-board and enables the creation of reagent cocktails with up to 45 unique reagents.
User Experience: The intuitive touchscreen interface minimizes user training requirements. The system's bidirectional communication with laboratory information systems automates worklist preparation, reducing the risk of manual data entry errors.
Impact: Users report increased efficiency, reduced errors, and enhanced control over standardization processes. The system supports compliance with ISO15189 accreditation by linking reagents and materials to specific patients.
Conclusion: The BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System offers a fully integrated, end-to-end solution that simplifies laboratory processes, increases productivity, and ensures a controlled and auditable environment.
