We are proud to offer a unique Total Quality Concept (TQC) of instruments, reagents, controls/calibrators including support and service during the system´s lifetime. By offering a complete system solution it is our ambition to support our customers with reliable and qualitative results in the diagnosis and treatment of the patients. Reagents Quintus has a locked reagent system with specially designed diluting and lysing reagents. Quintus 5-part Diluent is used for both diluting the sample and focusing the stream of WBC in the flow cell. Quintus 5-part Lyse for hemolyzing RBC, releasing HGB and enabling the 5-part WBC diff. Quintus 5-part Stopper is for stopping the WBC lysing process. The instrument only needs 3 reagents for the benefit of easy logistics and low running costs. For environmental and safety reasons Quintus only uses cyanide-free lysing reagents. Controls and Calibrators As one important element of a complete hematology system, we also provide control and calibrator material of the highest quality. By using barcodes for handling and registering the material and their assay values, it is easy to use and 100 % secure. Cleaners The maintenance of Quintus is kept at a minimum level, but to avoid build-up of proteins we recommend that our cleaning solutions are used to maintain the instrument in perfect condition.
